We consider the quintic generalized Korteweg–de Vries equation (gKdV) $$u_t + (u_{xx} + u^5)_x =0,$$ which is a canonical mass critical problem, for initial data in$H$^{1}close to the soliton. In earlier works on this problem, finite- or infinite-time blow up was proved for non-positive energy solutions, and the solitary wave was shown to be the universal blow-up profile, see [16], [26] and [20]. For well-localized initial data, finite-time blow up with an upper bound on blow-up rate was obtained in [18].

We establish mean curvature estimate for immersed hypersurface with nonnegative extrinsic scalar curvature in Riemannian manifold $(N^{n+1}, \bar g)$ through regularity study of a degenerate fully nonlinear curvature equation in general Riemannian manifold. The estimate has a direct consequence for the Weyl isometric embedding problem of $(\mathbb S^2, g)$ in $3$-dimensional warped product space $(N^3, \bar g)$. We also discuss isometric embedding problem in spaces with horizon in general relativity, like the Anti-de Sitter-Schwarzschild manifolds and the Reissner-Nordstr\"om manifolds.

For periodic initial data with density allowed to vanish initially, we establish the global existence of strong and weak solutions to the two-dimensional barotropic compressible Navier–Stokes equations with no restrictions on the size of initial data provided the shear viscosity is a positive constant and the bulk one is λ =ρ^β with β>4/3. These results generalize and improve the previous ones due to Vaigant–Kazhikhov [Sib. Math. J. 36 (1995) 1283–1316] who required β>3. Moreover, we also prove that the densities for both the strong and weak solutions remain bounded from above independently of time. As a consequence, it is shown that both the strong and weak solutions converge to the equilibrium state as time tends to infinity.

In this paper, we provide existence and estimates of the equation du A v^du i= i

In this paper, we derive apriori estimates for constant scalar curvature K\"ahler metrics on a compact K\"ahler manifold. We show that higher order derivatives can be estimated in terms of a $C^0$ bound for the K\"ahler potential. We also discuss some local versions of these estimates which can be of independent interest.
