Isolatedness of characteristic points at blow-up for a semilinear wave equation in one space dimension

Frank MerleHatem Zaag

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

We consider the semilinear wave equation with power nonlinearity in one space dimension. We first show the existence of a blow-up solution with a characteristic point. Then, we consider an arbitrary blow-up solution u ( x , t ) , the graph x T ( x ) of its blow-up points and 𝒮 the set of all characteristic points and show that 𝒮 is locally finite. Finally, given x 0 𝒮 , we show that in selfsimilar variables, the solution decomposes into a decoupled sum of (at least two) solitons, with alternate signs and that T ( x ) forms a...
