McKean-type blowup criterion for radial EPDiff equations
McKean-type blowup criterion for radial EPDiff equations
Let be the initial radial momentum, let , and consider a radial solution of the Euler–Arnold equation with parameter .
McKean-type blowup conjecture. If
for some , then a solution with , corresponding to the or metric, breaks down in finite time. If instead
for some , then a solution with breaks down in finite time.
This proposes a higher-dimensional radial analogue of McKean-type sign criteria known for the Hunter–Saxton and Camassa–Holm equations. The source motivates the two weighted integral conditions but does not establish them, so the criterion remains open.
