As a consequence, we deduce the existence of self-similar solutions in any dimension. In the one-dimensional case, we characterize the self-similar solutions associated with an initial data given by some ($\\mathbb{S}^2$-valued) step function and establish their stability. We also show the existence of multiple solutions if the damping is strong enough. Our arguments rely on the study of a dissipative quasilinear Schr\\\"odinger obtained via the stereographic projection and techniques introduced by Koch and Tataru.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-01-11T18:05:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35R05", "35Q60", "35A01", "35C06", "35B35", "35Q55", "35Q56", "35A02", "53C44" ], "keywords": [ "self-similar solutions", "landau-lifshitz-gilbert equation", "cauchy problem", "initial data", "global well-posedness result" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 40, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
