Abstract: The question of global existence versus finite-time singularity formation is considered for the generalized Constantin-Lax-Majda equation with dissipation Lambdasigma, where widehatLambdasigma=|k|sigma, both for the problem on the circle xin[pi,pi] and the real line. In the periodic geometry, two complementary approaches are used to prove global-in-time existence of solutions for sigmageq1 and all real values of an advection parameter a when the data is small. We also derive new analytical solutions in both geometries when a=0, and on the real line when a=1/2, for various values of sigma. These solutions exhibit self-similar finite-time singularity formation, and the similarity exponents and conditions for singularity formation are fully characterized. We revisit an analytical solution on the real line due to Schochet for a=0 and sigma=2, and reinterpret it terms of self-similar finite-time collapse. The analytical solutions on the real line allow finite-time singularity formation for arbitrarily small data, even for values of sigma that are greater than or equal to one, thereby illustrating a critical difference between the problems on the real line and the circle. The analysis is complemented by accurate numerical simulations, which are able to track the formation and motion singularities in the complex plane. The computations validate and extend the analytical theory.
