Limiting profiles of blow-up solutions of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with critical power nonlinearity (Q1387865)

This paper concerns the following Cauchy problem for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation \[ 2i {\partial u\over \partial t} +\Delta u+| u|^{4/N} u=0,\;(t,x) \in \mathbb{R}_+ \times \mathbb{R}^N, \quad u(0,x)=u_0 (x),\;x\in \mathbb{R}^N. \] The author reviews his recent results on the asymptotic behavior of blow-up solutions.
