We study the energy-critical focusing non-linear wave equation, with data in the energy space, in dimensions 3, 4 and 5. We prove that for Cauchy data of energy smaller than the one of the static solution$W$which gives the best constant in the Sobolev embedding, the following alternative holds. If the initial data has smaller norm in the homogeneous Sobolev space$H$^{1}than the one of$W$, then we have global well-posedness and scattering. If the norm is larger than the one of$W$, then we have break-down in finite time.

We give a concrete and surprisingly simple characterization of compact sets $ K \subset \mathbb{R}^{{2 \times 2}} $ for which families of approximate solutions to the inclusion problem$Du$∈$K$are compact. In particular our condition is algebraic and can be tested algorithmically. We also prove that the quasiconvex hull of compact sets of 2 × 2 matrices can be localized. This is false for compact sets in higher dimensions in general.

We consider random Schrödinger equations on$R$^{$d$}for$d$≽ 3 with a homogeneous Anderson–Poisson type random potential. Denote by λ the coupling constant and $\psi_t$ the solution with initial data $\psi_0$ . The space and time variables scale as $ x\sim\lambda ^{{ - 2 - \varkappa/2}} {\text{ and }}t\sim\lambda ^{{ - 2 - \varkappa}} {\text{ with }}0 < \varkappa < \varkappa_{0} {\left( d \right)} $ . We prove that, in the limit λ → 0, the expectation of the Wigner distribution of $\psi_t$ converges weakly to the solution of a heat equation in the space variable$x$for arbitrary$L$^{2}initial data.
