Stable blowup for wave equations in odd space dimensions (Q1683359)

The authors consider semilinear wave equations with focusing power nonlinearities in odd space dimensions \(d\geq 5\). They prove that for every \(p>\frac{d+3}{d-1}\) there exists an open set of radial initial data in \(H^{\frac{d+1}{2}}\times H^{\frac{d-1}{2}}\) such that the corresponding solution exists in a backward lightcone and approaches the ODE blowup profile. The result covers the entire range of energy supercritical nonlinearities and extends their previous work for the three-dimensional radial wave equation to higher space dimensions.
