Global oscillatory solutions for the Yang-Mills heat flow

Yannick Sire, Juncheng Wei, Youquan Zheng, Yifu Zhou

Abstract

We investigate the long-time dynamics for the global solution of the $SO(4)$-equivariant Yang-Mills heat flow (YMHF) with structure group $SU(2)$ in space dimension $4$. For a class of initial data with specific decay at spatial infinity, we prove that the long-time dynamics of YMHF can be described by the initial data in a unified manner. As a consequence, the global solutions can exhibit blow-up, blow-down, and more exotically, {\it oscillatory} asymptotic behavior at time infinity. This seems to be the first example of Yang-Mills heat flows with oscillatory behavior as $t\to \infty$.

Global oscillatory solutions for the Yang-Mills heat flow

Abstract

We investigate the long-time dynamics for the global solution of the -equivariant Yang-Mills heat flow (YMHF) with structure group in space dimension . For a class of initial data with specific decay at spatial infinity, we prove that the long-time dynamics of YMHF can be described by the initial data in a unified manner. As a consequence, the global solutions can exhibit blow-up, blow-down, and more exotically, {\it oscillatory} asymptotic behavior at time infinity. This seems to be the first example of Yang-Mills heat flows with oscillatory behavior as .

Theorem 1.1

Let $\Theta(r,t)$ solve Then for any smooth initial data $\Theta_0(r)$ satisfying problem (YMSO4-6Dheat) has a solution with the following form where $U(\rho) = \frac{2}{\rho^2+1}$, and $\|\Psi_*(\cdot,t)\|_{L^\infty}=O(t^{-1}(\log t)^{-a-\epsilon})$ for some $0<\epsilon<1$. The global scaling law of $\lambda$ is described precisely by Here $C(t_0, t)$ is a smooth bounded function of $t\in (t_
