The L2L^2-critical mBO global-existence and blow-up dichotomy

Let u0H1/2(R)u_0\in H^{1/2}(\mathbb R) be sufficiently localized, let QQ be the ground state solution of the equation defining QQ with m=3m=3, and let u(x,t)u(x,t) be the mBO time evolution of u0u_0. The energy is denoted by E[u0]E[u_0]. The L2L^2-critical mBO dichotomy. The solution satisfies both:

  1. u(x,t)u(x,t) exists globally in time if u0L2<QL2\\|u_0\\|_{L^2}<\\|Q\\|_{L^2};
  2. u(x,t)u(x,t) blows up in finite time if E[u0]<0E[u_0]<0, which implies u0L2>QL2\\|u_0\\|_{L^2}>\\|Q\\|_{L^2}.

The first assertion is known by the argument of Weinstein, while positive-energy blow-up solutions also exist above the soliton mass. The conjectural part concerns the stated finite-time blow-up criterion and the resulting critical-mass dynamics.
