Existence of a symmetry-axis compatible background blow-up profile

There exist a time T>0T>0 and smooth functions

V,U,G,PC([0,T)×R×[π2,π2])V,U,G,P\in C^\infty\bigl([0,T)\times \mathbb{R}\times[-\tfrac{\pi}{2},\tfrac{\pi}{2}]\bigr)

with smooth initial data

a(x,θ)=f1(x2,ϕ(θ)),b(x,θ)=f2(x2,ϕ(θ)),c(x,θ)=f3(x2,ϕ(θ)),a(x,\theta)=f_1(x^2,\phi(\theta)),\quad b(x,\theta)=f_2(x^2,\phi(\theta)),\quad c(x,\theta)=f_3(x^2,\phi(\theta)),

for smooth f1,f2,f3f_1,f_2,f_3 and a smooth even angular profile ϕ(θ)\phi(\theta) adapted to θ=0,±π2\theta=0,\pm\frac{\pi}{2}, satisfying the compatibility, regularity, parity, and ridge-flatness conditions of the rev3 formulation. Existence of a symmetry-axis compatible background blow-up profile. The quadruple (V,U,G,P)(V,U,G,P) solves the background system on [0,T)×R×[π2,π2][0,T)\times\mathbb{R}\times[-\frac{\pi}{2},\frac{\pi}{2}] with the stated initial data, preserves evenness in (r,z)(r,z) and the associated symmetry-axis flatness, reduces along x=0x=0 to the closed apex ODE dynamics, and obeys

V(t,0,θ)cTt|V(t,0,\theta_*)|\sim\frac{c_*}{T-t}

as tTt\uparrow T for some c>0c_*>0 and each θ0,±π2\theta_*\in\\{0,\pm\tfrac{\pi}{2}\\}. Moreover, the global size bounds

V(t)Lx,θC1Tt,U(t)Lx,θC2Tt,G(t)Lx,θC3Tt\\|V(t)\\|_{L^\infty_{x,\theta}}\leq\frac{C_1}{T-t},\quad \\|U(t)\\|_{L^\infty_{x,\theta}}\leq\frac{C_2}{T-t},\quad \\|G(t)\\|_{L^\infty_{x,\theta}}\leq\frac{C_3}{T-t}

hold, the required adapted derivatives satisfy bounds at the same critical scale, and sufficiently small perturbations close the bootstrap up to time TT while preserving the same apex singularity scenario. This would provide a full background and perturbative construction extending the rigorously established apex blow-up mechanism away from the apex and to the full wedge; the source does not establish these assertions.
