We consider co-rotational wave maps from Minkowski space in $d+1$ dimensions to the $d$-sphere. Recently, Bizon and Biernat found explicit self-similar solutions for each dimension $dgeq 4$. We give a rigorous proof for the mode stability of these self-similar wave maps.

We consider co-rotational wave maps from the $(1+d)$-dimensional Minkowski space into the $d$-sphere for $dgeq 3$ odd. This is an energy-supercritical model which is known to exhibit finite-time blowup via self-similar solutions. Based on a method developed by the second author and Schorkhuber, we prove the asymptotic nonlinear stability of the ground-state self-similar solution.
We consider the wave equation with a focusing cubic nonlinearity in higher odd space dimensions without symmetry restrictions on the data. We prove that there exists an open set of initial data such that the corresponding solution exists in a backward light-cone and approaches the ODE blowup profile.
We consider the heat flow of corotational harmonic maps from $mathbb R^3$ to the three-sphere and prove the nonlinear asymptotic stability of a particular self-similar shrinker that is not known in closed form. Our method provides a novel, systematic, robust, and constructive approach to the stability analysis of self-similar blowup in parabolic evolution equations. In particular, we completely avoid using delicate Lyapunov functionals, monotonicity formulas, indirect arguments, or fragile parabolic structure like the maximum principle. As a matter of fact, our approach reduces the nonlinear stability analysis of self-similar shrinkers to the spectral analysis of the associated self-adjoint linearized operators.
We study the initial value problem for the wave maps defined on the cyclic spacetime with the target Riemannian manifold that is responsive (see definition of the self coherence structure) to the parametric resonance phenomena. In particular, for arbitrary small and smooth initial data we construct blowing up solutions of the wave map if the metric of the base manifold is periodic in time.
This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem for an energy-supercritical nonlinear wave equation in odd space dimensions that arises in equivariant Yang-Mills theory. In each dimension, there is a self-similar finite-time blowup solution to this equation known in closed form. It will be proved that this profile is stable in the whole space under small perturbations of the initial data. The blowup analysis is based on a recently developed coordinate system called hyperboloidal similarity coordinates and depends crucially on growth estimates for the free wave evolution, which will be constructed systematically for odd space dimensions in the first part of this paper. This allows to develop a nonlinear stability theory beyond the singularity.
