Books

• Concentration compactness for critical wave maps, with Joachim Krieger.
  This is our proof of global existence for large data energy critical wave maps into
  the hyperbolic plane based on the profile decomposition.
  Has appeared in the series "Monographs" of the EMS Publishing house: EMS


• Invariant Manifolds and dispersive Hamiltonian Evolution Equations, with Kenji Nakanishi.
  This is based on a course taught at ETH Zürich in the fall of 2010.
  Many thanks to Martin Sack at ETH for his help in preparing these lecture notes.
  Has appeared in ''Zürich lectures in Advanced Mathematics'' of the EMS Publishing House.
  The link to the publisher page is here EMS. In North America, the book can be ordered via the AMS, see ORDER.


• Classical and Multilinear Harmonic Analysis, with Camil Muscalu.
  The first volume of this book, which covers classical harmonic analysis, is a much
  revised and expanded version of my old harmonic analysis notes, see below.
  There is a completely new multilinear part as a second volume which covers Carleson's
  theorem, the bilinear Hilbert transform and much more. To appear early 2013
  with Cambridge University Press. See here for Vol 1 and Vol 2

Teaching

• Harmonic analysis notes.
  These are my old harmonic analysis notes, see the book announcement above.


• Notes from a course on Schrödinger equations
  These are very rough lecture notes from an introductory class on linear and nonlinear Schrödinger equations.
  Use with caution, they need a lot of work. I hope to revise them in the future.


• Notes from a complex analysis class
  Lecture notes from a first year graduate class at Chicago.
  They are still incomplete and need more work. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Meetings and Conferences

• PDE Conference in Ascona
This meeting brought together experts in completely integrable equations and KAM theory with those using more
harmonic analysis oriented methods. It took place in Ascona, Switzerland, July 1-6, 2012. It was organized by
Dario Bambusi, Thomas Kappeler, Joachim Krieger and myself.



Numerical Data

• Numerical results for radial nonlinear Klein-Gordon in three dimensions
  Under this link the reader will find most of the numerical data as well as C-codes
  which were produced together with Roland Donninger in 2010 using a MacPro 8-core work station.
  These data can only be understood in conjunction with the paper 'Numerical study of the
  blowup/global existence dichotomy etc.' which can be found above. Although the authors have also
  conducted computations on the NICS CRAY XT5 supercomputer which are described in this paper,
  we have only deposited the MacPro material here as the CRAY uses MPI and is not so easily portable.
  For the most part, the data are accompanied by readme files which offer some information about the codes.
  The directory linked here is simply a copy of a (somewhat cleaned up) working directory which was used in the process of
  producing the data. The executables were erased, as well as the .pdf files of the pictures which are simply too large.
  All pictures are in .png format, and they were produced from the data files (.dat) via gnuplot.
