We prove that the initial value problem for a non-linear Schrödinger equation is well-posed in the Besov space [Formula: see text], where the nonlinearity is of type |u|αu. This allows to obtain self-similar solutions, and to recover previous results under weaker smallness assumptions on the data.

We discuss the fourth-order thin film equation with a stable second-order diffusion term, in the context of a standard free-boundary problem with zero height, zero contact angle and zero-flux conditions imposed at an interface. For the first critical exponent where N ≥ 1 is the space dimension, there are continuous sets (branches) of source-type very singular self-similar solutions of the form For p ≠ p0, the set of very singular self-similar solutions is shown to be finite and consists of a countable family of branches (in the parameter p) of similarity profiles that originate at a sequence of critical exponents {pl, l ≥ 0}. At p = pl, these branches appear via a non-linear bifurcation mechanism from a countable set of second kind similarity solutions of the pure thin film equation Such solutions are detected by a combination of linear and non-linear ‘Hermitian spectral theory’, which allows the application of an analytical n-branching approach. In order to connect with the Cauchy problem in Part I, we identify the cauchy problem solutions as suitable ‘limits’ of the free-boundary problem solutions.

We derive the asymptotic form of the self-similar solutions of the second kind of the Cauchy problem for Barenblatt's nonlinear filtration equation by perturbing the Lie group of the underlying linear problem. We also show that the decay rate, appearing in the similarity solutions, can be found by a simple inspection of the corresponding energy dissipation law.

We study the global Cauchy problem for the equation iut+Δu+λ|u|αu=0 in ℝN. Using generalized Strichartz' inequalities we show that, under some restrictions on α, if the initial value is sufficiently small in some weak Lpspace then there exists a global solution. This result provides a common framework to the "classical" Hssolutions and to the self-similar solutions, thereby extending previous results by Planchon.

We study co-rotational wave maps from (3 + 1)-Minkowski space to the three-sphere S3. It is known that there exists a countable family {fn} of self-similar solutions. We investigate their stability under linear perturbations by operator theoretic methods. To this end we study the spectra of the perturbation operators, prove well-posedness of the corresponding linear Cauchy problem and deduce a growth estimate for solutions. Finally, we study perturbations of the limiting solution which is obtained from fn by letting n → ∞.
