In this paper, we consider blow-up of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the following fractional Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation (NLS),

\begin{equation*}\mathrm{i} \, \partial_t u=(-\Delta)^s u-|u|^{2 \sigma} u \quad \text{in} \,\, \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^N,\end{equation*}

where $N \geq 2$, $1/2 \lt s \lt 1$, and $0 \lt \sigma \lt 2s/(N-2s)$. In the mass critical and supercritical cases, we establish a criterion for blow-up of solutions to the problem for cylindrically symmetric data. The results extend the known ones with respect to blow-up of solutions to the problem for radially symmetric data.

In this paper, we study the Cauchy problem for pseudo-parabolic equations with a logarithmic nonlinearity. After establishing the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions within a suitable functional framework, we investigate several qualitative properties, including the asymptotic behaviour and blow-up of solutions as $t\to +\infty$. Moreover, when the initial data are close to a Gaussian function, we prove that these weak solutions exhibit either super-exponential growth or super-exponential decay.

This paper is the latter part of a series of our studies on the concentration and oscillation analysis of semilinear elliptic equations with exponential growth $e^{u^p}$. In the first one [17], we completed the concentration analysis of blow-up positive solutions in the supercritical case p > 2 via a scaling approach. As a result, we detected infinite sequences of concentrating parts with precise quantification. In the present paper, we proceed to our second aim, the oscillation analysis. Especially, we deduce an infinite oscillation estimate directly from the previous infinite concentration ones. This allows us to investigate intersection properties between blow-up solutions and singular functions. Consequently, we show that the intersection number between blow-up and singular solutions diverges to infinity. This leads to a proof of infinite oscillations of bifurcation diagrams, which ensures the existence of infinitely many solutions. Finally, we also remark on infinite concentration and oscillation phenomena in the limit cases $p\to2^+$ and $p\to \infty$.

We consider the chemotaxis-Navier–Stokes system with generalised fluid dissipation in $\mathbb{R}^3$:

\begin{eqnarray*} \begin{cases} \partial _t n+u\cdot \nabla n=\Delta n- \nabla \cdot (\chi (c)n \nabla c),\\[5pt] \partial _t c+u \cdot \nabla c=\Delta c-nf(c),\\[5pt] \partial _t u +u \cdot \nabla u+\nabla P=-(\!-\Delta )^\alpha u-n\nabla \phi, \\[5pt] \nabla \cdot u=0, \end{cases} \end{eqnarray*}

In this paper, we consider the defocusing nonlinear wave equation $-\partial _t^2u+\Delta u=|u|^{p-1}u$ in $\mathbb {R}\times \mathbb {R}^d$. Building on our companion work (Self-similar imploding solutions of the relativistic Euler equations, arXiv:2403.11471), we prove that for $d=4, p\geq 29$ and $d\geq 5, p\geq 17$, there exists a smooth complex-valued solution that blows up in finite time.

This paper deals with a 4th-order parabolic equation involving the Frobenius norm of a Hessian matrix, subject to the Neumann boundary conditions. Some threshold results for blow-up or global or extinction solutions are obtained through classifying the initial energy and the Nehari energy. The bounds of blow-up time, decay estimates, and extinction rates are studied, respectively.

In this paper, we consider blowup of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the following biharmonic nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS),

\begin{equation*}\text{i } \partial_t u=\Delta^2 u-\mu \Delta u-|u|^{2 \sigma} u \quad \text{in} \,\, \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^d,\end{equation*}

where $d \geq 1$, $\mu \in \mathbb{R}$ and $0 \lt \sigma \lt \infty$ if $1 \leq d \leq 4$ and $0 \lt \sigma \lt 4/(d-4)$ if $d \geq 5$. In the mass critical and supercritical cases, we establish the existence of blowup solutions to the problem for cylindrically symmetric data. The result extends the known ones with respect to blowup of solutions to the problem for radially symmetric data.

We analyse the asymptotic dynamics of quasilinear parabolic equations when solutions may grow up (i.e. blow up in infinite time). For such models, there is a global attractor which is unbounded and the semiflow induces a nonlinear dynamics at infinity by means of a Poincaré projection. In case the dynamics at infinity is given by a semilinear equation, then it is gradient, consisting of the so-called equilibria at infinity and their corresponding heteroclinics. Moreover, the diffusion and reaction compete for the dimensionality of the induced dynamics at infinity. If the equilibria are hyperbolic, we explicitly prove the occurrence of heteroclinics between bounded equilibria and/or equilibria at infinity. These unbounded global attractors describe the space of admissible initial data at event horizons of certain black holes.

We study the existence of large solutions for nonlocal Dirichlet problems posed on a bounded, smooth domain, associated with fully nonlinear elliptic equations of order $2\,s$, with $s\in (1/2,\,1)$, and a coercive gradient term with subcritical power $0< p<2\,s$. Due to the nonlocal nature of the diffusion, new blow-up phenomena arise within the range $0< p<2\,s$, involving a continuum family of solutions and/or solutions blowing-up to $-\infty$ on the boundary. This is in striking difference with the local case studied by Lasry–Lions for the subquadratic case $1< p<2$.

We consider a class of nonlinear higher-order evolution inequalities posed in $(0,\infty)\times B_1\backslash\{0\}$, subject to inhomogeneous Dirichlet-type boundary conditions, where B1 is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^N$. The considered class involves differential operators of the form

\begin{equation*}\mathcal{L}_{\mu_1,\mu_2}=-\Delta +\frac{\mu_1}{|x|^2}x\cdot \nabla +\frac{\mu_2}{|x|^2},\qquad x\in \mathbb{R}^N\backslash\{0\},\end{equation*}

$\mu_1\in \mathbb{R}$

$\mu_2\geq -\left(\frac{\mu_1-N+2}{2}\right)^2$

The main objective of this paper is to establish the convergence for the fractional $p$-Laplacian of sequences of nonnegative functions with $p>2$. Furthermore, we show the blow-up phenomena for solutions to the extended Nirenberg problem modelled by fractional $p$-Laplacian with the prescribed negative functions.

We propose and study a class of parabolic-ordinary differential equation models involving chemotaxis and haptotaxis of a species following signals indirectly produced by another, non-motile one. The setting is motivated by cancer invasion mediated by interactions with the tumour microenvironment, but has much wider applicability, being able to comprise descriptions of biologically quite different problems. As a main mathematical feature constituting a core difference to both classical Keller–Segel chemotaxis systems and Chaplain–Lolas type chemotaxis–haptotaxis systems, the considered model accounts for certain types of indirect signal production mechanisms. The main results assert unique global classical solvability under suitably mild assumptions on the system parameter functions in associated spatially two-dimensional initial-boundary value problems. In particular, this rigorously confirms that at least in two-dimensional settings, the considered indirectness in signal production induces a significant blow-up suppressing tendency also in taxis systems substantially more general than some particular examples for which corresponding effects have recently been observed.

We consider the minimizing problem for the energy functional with prescribed mass constraint related to the fractional non-linear Schrödinger equation with periodic potentials. Using the concentration-compactness principle, we show a complete classification for the existence and non-existence of minimizers for the problem. In the mass-critical case, under a suitable assumption of the potential, we give a detailed description of blow-up behaviour of minimizers once the mass tends to a critical value.

Pullback attractors with forwards unbounded behaviour are to be found in the literature, but not much is known about pullback attractors with each and every section being unbounded. In this paper, we introduce the concept of unbounded pullback attractor, for which the sections are not required to be compact. These objects are addressed in this paper in the context of a class of non-autonomous semilinear parabolic equations. The nonlinearities are assumed to be non-dissipative and, in addition, defined in such a way that the equation possesses unbounded solutions as the initial time goes to -∞, for each elapsed time. Distinct regimes for the non-autonomous term are taken into account. Namely, we address the small non-autonomous perturbation and the asymptotically autonomous cases.

Using the flow method, we prove some existence results for the problem of prescribing the mean curvature on the unit ball. More precisely, we prove that there exists a conformal metric on the unit ball such that its mean curvature is f, when f possesses certain reflection or rotation symmetry.

We are concerned with an elliptic problem which describes a mean field equation of the equilibrium turbulence of vortices with variable intensities. In the first part of the paper, we describe the blow-up picture and highlight the differences from the standard mean field equation as we observe non-quantization phenomenon. In the second part, we discuss the Moser–Trudinger inequality in terms of the blow-up masses and get the existence of solutions in a non-coercive regime by means of a variational argument, which is based on some improved Moser–Trudinger inequalities.

We study the initial boundary value problem for a fourth-order parabolic equation with nonstandard growth conditions. We establish the local existence of weak solutions and derive the finite time blow-up of solutions with nonpositive initial energy.

In this paper, we study the initial boundary value problem for a class of fourth order damped wave equations with arbitrary positive initial energy. In the framework of the energy method, we further exploit the properties of the Nehari functional. Finally, the global existence and finite time blow-up of solutions are obtained.
