Abstract: For the radial energy-supercritical nonlinear wave equation Box u = -u_{tt} + riangle u = pm u^7 on R3+1, we prove the existence of a class of global in forward time Cinfty-smooth solutions with infinite critical Sobolev norm dotHfrac76(R3)imesdotHf16(R3). Moreover, these solutions are stable under suitably small perturbations . We also show that for the {em defocussing} energy supercritical wave equation, we can construct such solutions which moreover satisfy the size condition |u(0,cdot)|Lxinfty(|x|geq1)>M for arbitrarily prescribed M>0. These solutions are stable under suitably small perturbations. Our method proceeds by regularization of self-similar solutions which are smooth away from the light-cone but singular on the light-cone. The argument crucially depends on the supercritical nature of the equation. Our approach should be seen as part of the program initiated in cite{KrSchTat1}, cite{KrSchTat2}, cite{DoKri}.


For the energy supercritical defocusing/focusing nonlinear wave equation on \(\mathbb R^{3+1}\), \(\square u\pm u^7=0\), the global existence of smooth solutions belonging to a class of large data is investigated. Section two is devoted to computing smooth self-similar solutions, by a reduction to a nonlinear Sturm-Liouville problem. One considers the interior light-cone and the exterior light-cone. In the third section, global smooth solutions for the above equation, which are large in a suitable sense, are constructed, and in the forth section one succeeds to built an exact solution. The fifth and sixth sections are devoted to larger global solutions in the defocusing case and to global smooth solutions for the defocusing equation. The paper ends with a discussion on local solvability of the perturbative equation.
