Review text

In this brief survey, the author presents recent progress on large data results for nonlinear wave equations such as \(\square u=F(u,Du)\), \(F(0)=DF(0)=0\), \((u(0),\dot{u}(0))=(f,g)\). The author distinguishes two basic scenarios: {\parindent= 0.5cm\begin{itemize}\item[1)] Small data theory: the local and global well-posedness, the existence of conserved quantities (energy), their relation to the basic symmetries of the equation (particularly the dilation symmetry) are presented and discussed. \item[2)] Large data theory: finite-time blow-up of solutions, the classification of possible blowup dynamics and structure are presented and investigated.NEWLINENEWLINE\end{itemize}} It is demonstrated that the concentration compactness procedure has turned out to much more versatile; for example, it has been a key ingredient in the classification of blow-up behavior of solutions.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 1279.00048].
