Abstract: Consider the focusing semilinear wave equation in R^3 with energy-critical nonlinearity partial_t^2 psi - Delta psi - psi^5 = 0, psi(0) = psi_0, partial_t psi(0) = psi_1. This equation admits stationary solutions of the form phi(x, a) := (3a)^{1/4} (1+a|x|^2)^{-1/2}, called solitons, which solve the elliptic equation -Delta phi - phi^5 = 0. Restricting ourselves to the space of symmetric solutions psi for which psi(x) = psi(-x), we find a local centre-stable manifold, in a neighborhood of phi(x, 1), for this wave equation in the weighted Sobolev space <x>^{-1} dot H^1 imes <x>^{-1} L^2. Solutions with initial data on the manifold exist globally in time for t geq 0, depend continuously on initial data, preserve energy, and can be written as the sum of a rescaled soliton and a dispersive radiation term. The proof is based on a new class of reverse Strichartz estimates, introduced in Beceanu-Goldberg and adapted here to the case of Hamiltonians with a resonance.
