On dispersive blow-ups for the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation

In this article, we provide a simple method for constructing dispersive blow-up solutions to the nonlinear Schr"odinger equation. Our construction mainly follows the approach in Bona, Ponce, Saut and Sparber [2]. However, we make use of the dispersive estimate to enjoy the smoothing effect of the Schr"odinger propagator in the integral term appearing in Duhamel’s formula. In this way, not only do we simplify the argument, but we also reduce the regularity requirement to construct dispersive blow-ups. In addition, we provide more examples of dispersive blow-ups by constructing solutions that blow up on a straight line and on a sphere.
