On the stability of the notion of non-characteristic point and blow-up profile for semilinear wave equations (Q2515024): Difference between revisions

Considering the subconformal focusing semilinear wave equations in \(\mathbb{R}^N\), i.e., \(u_{tt}-\Delta u=|u|^{p-1}u\) with \(1<p<1+4/(N-1)\) and \(N\geq 2\), the authors consider a blow-up solution for the equation. Introducing \(\mathcal{R}_0\) the set of non-characteristic points with the Lorentz transform of the space-independent solution as asymptotic profile, the authors show that \(\mathcal{R}_0\) is open and that the blow-up surface is of class \(C^1\) on \(\mathcal{R}_0\). In addition, the stability of \(\mathcal{R}_0\) with respect to initial data is also proven.
