1 Introduction and main results
The incompressible Magnetohydrodynamics equations (MHD) describes the dynamics of electrically conducting fluids arising from plasmas or some other physical phenomena. In the present paper, we are interested in the stable blowup phenomena of smooth solutions to the three dimensional MHD equations
[TABLE]
where , v denotes the D velocity field of the fluid, stands for the pressure in the fluid, H is the the magnetic field, and denote the viscosity constant and resistivity constant, respectively. The divergence free condition in second equations of (1.1) guarantees the incompressibility of the fluid. In particularly, when , equations (1.1) is called ideal incompressible MHD; When , equations (1.1) is called resistive incompressible MHD.
Assume that and . It is easy to check that solutions of D incompressible MHD equations (1.1) admits the scaling invariant property, that is, let be a solution of (1.1), then for any constant , the functions
[TABLE]
are also solutions of D incompressible MHD equations (1.1). Here the initial data is changed into .
The question of finite time singularity/global regularity for three dimensional incomprsssible Navier-Stokes equations is the most important open problems in mathematical fluid mechanics [12]. Since the three dimensional incomprsssible MHD equations (1.1) is a combination of the Navier-Stokes equations of fluid dynamics and Maxwell’s equations of electromagnetism, it is also natural important problem for the three dimensional incompressible MHD equations. Toward the well-posedness theory direction, it is natural to expect the global existence of classical solutions for viscous and resistive MHD equations for small initial data [11, 23]. More precisely, Sermange and Temam [23] established the local well-posedness of classical solutions for fully viscous MHD equations, in which the global well-posedness is also proved in two dimensions. Lin-Zhang [18] proved that the global well-posedness of a three dimensional incompressible MHD type equations with smooth initial data that is close to some nontrivial steady state. After that, a simpler proof was offered by Lin-Zhang [19]. Recently, Abidi-Zhang [1] showed the global well-posedness for the three dimensional MHD equations without the admissible restriction in the Lagrangian coordinate system. The global stability of Alfvén waves [2] has been obtained by He-Xu-Yu [14] and Cai-Lei [5], meanwhile, those results are related to the vanishing dissipation limit from a fully dissipative MHD system to an inviscid and non-resistive MHD equations. Wei and Zhang [25] proved the MHD equations with small viscosity and resistivity coefficients are globally well-posed if the initial velocity is close to [math] and the initial magnetic field is close to a homogeneous magnetic field in the weighted Hölder space, where the closeness is independent of the dissipation coefficients. Pan-Zhou-Zhu [20] gave the global existence of classical solutions to the three dimensional incompressible viscous MHD equations without magnetic diffusion in three dimensional torus. Chemin-McCormick-Robinson-Rodrigo [6] obtained the local existence of solutions to the viscous, non-resistive MHD equations in with . Li-Tan-Yin [17] improved the results in [6] in homogeneous Besov spaces.
For large initial data case, there are some numerical results to approach the singularity of this kind problem [13]. The Beale-Kato-Majda’s blowup criterion for incompressible MHD was obtained in [4, 7]. Chae [8] excluded the scenario of the apparition of finite time singularity in the form of self-similar singularities. Very recently, Yan [27] found one family of stable explicit infinite energy blowup solutions for D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations (1.1) with . We remark there may be other kind of explicit infinite energy blowup solutions, but most of them are unstable! For example, we take the velocity
[TABLE]
and the pressure
[TABLE]
One can check above solution is unstable. Assume that the blowup , then one can also check the function is an unstable solution for three dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. This means that it is not a genuine infinite energy blowup solution.
Toward this direction, our first result show there exist a family of explicit infinite energy blowup solutions to incompressible MHD equations (1.1) with smooth initial data ( [26] is a part of this paper).
Theorem 1.1**.**
Let constant be maximal existence time and constants . The 3D incompressible MHD equations (1.1) admits a family of explicit finite time blowup solutions with smooth initial data as follows
[TABLE]
where
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
with the pressure
[TABLE]
and the smooth initial data
[TABLE]
where constants and .
Remark 1.1**.**
It follows from (1.2) that
[TABLE]
which means that
[TABLE]
and for , there is
[TABLE]
for a fixed point . Here one can see the initial data is smooth from (1.4). But the initial data goes to infinity as .
On one hand, it is easy to see the blowup phenomenon of D incompressible MHD (1.1) can only take place in the velocity field of the fluid v, but no blowup for the magnetic field H. Moreover, the blowup solutions (1.2) independent of viscosity constant and resistivity constant , so our results also hold for both D ideal incompressible MHD and resistive incompressible MHD. On the other hand, if the magnetic field , equations (1.1) is reduced into D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Then corresponding explicit blowup solutions given in (1.2) are also explicit stable blowup solutions for D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations [27]. For the velocity field of the fluid v, it follows from (1.2) that there is self-smilar singularity in direction, that is, for . Moreover, by (1.2), there are not only blowup for velocity field of the fluid v, but also blowup for the magnetic field H with constant as .
Let the smooth bounded domain be the form
[TABLE]
which is a free boundary surface. The second result is devoted to the study of nonlinear stable of singular solutions (1.2) in this smooth bounded domain. We set
[TABLE]
then substituting above equalities into the three dimensional MHD system (1.1) to get the perturbation system as follows
[TABLE]
Obviously, there are singular coefficients like in above perturbation system. It causes large difficulty to solve it directly. In order to overcome this case, we introduce the self-similarity coordinates
[TABLE]
where one can see the blowup time has been transformed into . Thus the smooth bounded domain (1.5) is transformed into a fixed domain
[TABLE]
So the local existence of perturbation system is equivalent to prove the global existence of perturbation system.
In fact, this kind of domain has been widely encountered when one studied the stabliliy of self-similar blowup solutions for wave equations (e.g. see [9, 10]). The main reason is the propagation of singularity inside the light cone for wave equations. Since the explicit blowup solutions given in (1.2) can also propagate inside the light cone, we study nonlinear stability of blowup solutions (1.2) in the free boundary surface (1.5).
We supplement the MHD system (1.1) with initial data
[TABLE]
and boundary condition
[TABLE]
We now state the asymptotic stability of infinite energy blowup solutions (1.2).
Theorem 1.2**.**
Let viscosity constant and resistivity constant be sufficient big, constants , , a fixed integer . The family of explicit finite time blowup solutions (1.2) is asymptotic stability in , i.e. for a sufficient small , if
[TABLE]
then the three dimensional incompressible MHD equations (1.1) admits a local solution such that
[TABLE]
with
[TABLE]
with the boundary condition
[TABLE]
where is a positive constant depending on constants , and denotes the usual Sobolev space.
Moreover, the blowup time is contained in for a positive constant .
Remark 1.2**.**
Above stability result also tells us if we perturbe the initial data , then we can construct blowup solutions
[TABLE]
but with the blowup time contained in the interval . So the blowup time maybe shift. A similar phenomenon has been proven in other kind of evolution equations ( for example, nonlinear wave equation [9]).
Remark 1.3**.**
For the three dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, we notice that the pressure is uniquely determined by the formula
[TABLE]
Hence the nonlinear term is important for getting the pressure.
In fact, if we consider a simple model
[TABLE]
then we take both sides with divergence free condition to the equation, thus we can not get any information on the pressure with the velocity field v. So this means that the pressure can not be unique determined.

The organization of this paper is as follows. In section 2, we give the details of finding explicit finite time blowup solutions of D incompressible MHD equations (1.1). In section 3, we study the local well-posedness for the linearized D incompressible MHD equations (1.1) around explicit finite time blowup solutions with small initial data. This last section will prove asymptotic stability of those finite time blowup solutions by construction of Nash-Moser iteration scheme.
2 Explicit finite time blowup solutions with infinite energy
In this section, we show how to find a family of explicit finite time blowup solutions of 3D incompressible MHD equations (1.1), which contains the result given in [26]. We first recall a result on the existence of explicit blowup axisymmetric solutions for D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations [27]. Let , and be the cylindrical coordinate system,
[TABLE]

The 3D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations admits a family of explicit blowup axisymmetric solutions:

[TABLE]
where constants .
We now derive the D incompressible MHD equations (1.1) with axisymmetric velocity field in the cylindrical coordinate (e.g. see [16]). The D velocity field and magnetic field are called axisymmetric if they can be written as
[TABLE]
where , and do not depend on the coordinate.
Note that the Lorentz force term

Then D MHD equations (1.1) with axisymmetric velocity field in the cylindrical coordinates can be reduced into a system as follows

The incompressibility condition becomes
[TABLE]
The following result gives a family of explict self-similar blowup solutions for system (2.3)-(2.9) with the incompressibility condition (2.10).
Proposition 2.1**.**
- Let be a constant. System (2.3)-(2.9) with the incompressibility condition (2.10) admits a family of explicit blowup solutions:
[TABLE]
where constants and .
Proof.
The idea of finding explicit blowup solutions for system (2.3)-(2.9) with the incompressibility condition (2.10) comes from [27]. This is based on the observation on the structure of system (2.3)-(2.9) and incompressibility condition (2.10). We notice that if the magnetic field , equations (1.1) is reduced into D incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, so the explicit blowup solutions (2.2) of Navier-Stokes equations should be a part of solutions for the corresponding MHD equations.
We set
[TABLE]
be a part of solutions for (2.3)-(2.8), where constants .
Substituting (2.12) into equations (2.4) and (2.6)-(2.8), we get
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
We observe the the structure of incompressibility condition (2.10) on the magnetic field, and we find it is better to set
[TABLE]
where are two unknown constants.
It is easy to see and given in (2.17) satisfies the incompressibility condition (2.10) on the magnetic field.
Note that . Substituting the in (2.17) into (2.14), we get
[TABLE]
which gives that
[TABLE]
We now find . Assume that
[TABLE]
where and are unknown constants.
It is easy to check that given in (2.18)-(2.19) satisfy (2.14) and (2.16) with
[TABLE]
We substitute (2.18)-(2.19) into (2.15), it holds
[TABLE]
which gives that
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
Thus we get
[TABLE]
In conclusion, by (2.18) and (2.22), we obtain
[TABLE]
which combining with (2.11) gives a family of solutions of system (2.3)-(2.9) with the incompressibility condition (2.10). Here constants and .
Furthermore, we compute the pressure . We substitute (2.11) into (2.3) and (2.5), there are
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
Note that
[TABLE]
Thus by (2.9), direct computations give the pressure

we can obtain a family of explicit blowup axisymmetric solutions for D incompressible MHD equations by noticing that are defined in (2.1), and , and
[TABLE]
where constants and .
Futhermore the vorticity vector is

[TABLE]
By directly computations, we can obtain a family of explicit blowup solutions from (2.2). Moreover, the vorticity vector

3 Well-posedness for the linearized time evolution
Since the dynamical behavior near blowup solutions is the study of local behavior near blowup point, we consider nonlinear stability of explicit blowup solutions in a smooth bounded domain with free boundary as follows
[TABLE]
This section is devoted to the study of the well-posedness of linearized equations. We take the divergence of the first equation in incompressible MHD (1.1) to get the pressure
[TABLE]
Let
[TABLE]
then substituting above equalities into incompressible MHD equations (1.1), we get the perturbation equations
[TABLE]

Assume that fixed functions . We linearize nonlinear equations (3.1) around to get the linearized equations with an external force as follows
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
where , and denote two unknown vector functions, and denote the Fréchet derivatives on w and b, respectively, and are two external forces. More precisely, it holds
[TABLE]
We supplement the linearized equations (3.6) with the initial data
[TABLE]
and the boundary condition
[TABLE]
We introduce the similarity coordinates
[TABLE]
where one can see the blowup time has been transformed into in the similarity coordinates (3.12). Thus the smooth bounded domain is transformed into a fixed domain
[TABLE]
So the local existence of linearized coupled system (3.6)-(3.7) with the incompressible condition in some Sobolev space is equivalent to prove the global existence of linearized coupled system. More precisely, equations (3.6) is transformed into three coupled equations as follows
[TABLE]
[TABLE]

3.1 Time-decay of solutions in -norm for the linear system
We first derive -estimate of solutions to linearized equations (3.13)-(3.18) with the initial data (3.20) and boundary condition (3.21).
Lemma 3.1**.**
Let constants and . Assume that and . The solution of linearized coupled system (3.13)-(3.18) with the initial data (3.20) and condition (3.21) satisfies
[TABLE]
where is a positive constant depending on constants .
Proof.
Multiplying both sides of (3.13)-(3.15) by , respectively, then integrating by parts, it holds
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
Similarly, we multiply both sides of (3.16)-(3.18) with and , then we integrate by parts to derive
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
We sum up (3.22)-(3.27) to get
[TABLE]
We now estimate each coupled nonlinear term in (3.28). Note that , and . We use Young’s inequality to derive
[TABLE]
Similarly, it holds
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
where is a postive constant depending on .
On the other hand, by (3.19) and incompressible condition, we integrate by parts to derive
[TABLE]
Thus by (3.29)-(3.32), it follows from (3.28) that
[TABLE]
where is a postive constant depending on , which is small as small.
Since we use Poincaré inequality to derive
[TABLE]
it holds
[TABLE]
Let . We notice that we can choose a sufficient small positive constant and sufficient big and such that
[TABLE]
Hence, applying Gronwall’s inequality to (3.35), there exists a positive constant depending on such that
[TABLE]
∎
3.2 Time-decay of solutions in -norm for the linear system
In what follows, we plan to carry out a higher order derivative estimates to the solutions of linearized system (3.13)-(3.18). For a fixed integer , applying \nabla_{y}^{s}:=\Big{(}\partial_{y_{1}}^{s},\partial_{y_{2}}^{s},\partial_{y_{3}}^{s}\Big{)}^{T} to both sides of (3.13)-(3.18), we obtain
[TABLE]

Proof.
We take the inner product to both sides of (3.36)-(3.38) by , and , respectively, then integrating by parts, it holds
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
Similarly, we take the inner product to both sides of (3.39)-(3.41) by , and , respectively, then we integrate by parts to get
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
We sum up (3.48)-(3.50) to get

where coupled terms take the following form
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
We now estimate each coupled term in (3.54). On one hand, note that and . We employ Young’s inequality and Poincaré inequality, and integrating by parts to derive
[TABLE]
where and denote postive constants depending on , and .
On the other hand, by (3.42)-(3.44), we know the highest order derivatives on of is . So we can use the standard Calderón-Zygmund theory, Young’s inequality, and integrating by parts to derive

Furthermore, by Poincaré inequality, it holds
[TABLE]
which combining with (3.62) gives that
[TABLE]
It is easy to see that for sufficient small constant , and sufficient big constants , we can choose a fixed constant and any fixed integer , it holds
[TABLE]
Therefore, applying Gronwall’s inequality to (3.63), there exists a positive constant depending on such that
[TABLE]
∎
Similar to get the estimate in Lemma 3.2, we apply the operator to both sides of (3.36)-(3.41), then using the similar process of proof in Lemma 3.2 , we can obtain the following result. Here we omit the details.
Lemma 3.3**.**
Let viscosity constant and resistivity constant be sufficient big, constants , and . Assume that and . The solution of linearized coupled system (3.13)-(3.18) with the initial data (3.20) and condition (3.21) satisfies

3.3 Global existence of solutions for the linear system in self-similarity coordinates
Proposition 3.1**.**

[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
where is a positive constant depending on constants , and is a sufficient small constant.
Proof.
Let the Leray projector onto the space of divergence free functions. We apply the Leray projector to (3.6)-(3.7), it holds
[TABLE]
where
[TABLE]
We recall that equations (3.66) can be rewritten as linear coupled system (3.13)-(3.18) in the similarity coordinates (3.12) by applying the Leray projector to them. For convenience, we write them as
[TABLE]
We notice that there is no singular coefficient in (3.67) for , and the term BP:=\left(\begin{array}[]{cccc}\overline{\mathbb{N}}_{1}(\textbf{w},\textbf{b},\circ,\circ)\\ \overline{\mathbb{N}}_{2}(\textbf{w},\textbf{b},\circ,\circ)\end{array}\right) can be seen as a bounded perturbation of the linear operator ML:=\left(\begin{array}[]{cccc}-\nu\mathbb{P}\triangle_{y}&0\\ 0&-\mu\mathbb{P}\triangle_{y}\end{array}\right).
Thus the linear operator
[TABLE]
can generate a strongly continuous semigroup in Sobolev space (see [27, 28]). Hence linear equations (3.67) has a solution in . Then, from Lemma 3.3-3.4, we can get (3.65) holds. ∎
3.4 Local existence of solutions for the linear system in original coordinates
Recall the self-similarity coordinates (3.12), the original coordinate can be expressed by the self-similarity coordinates as follows
[TABLE]
so we can directly use Proposition 3.1 to get the following result.
Proposition 3.2**.**
Let viscosity constant and resistivity constant be sufficient big, constants , and . Assume that and . The linearized system (3.6)-(3.8) with the initial data (3.10) and condition (3.11) admits a solution
[TABLE]
Moreover, it satisfies

4 Asymptotic stability of explicit blowup solutions
The stability of the explicit blowup solutions is equivalent to prove the local existence of solutions for equations (3.1) with a given small initial data. Meanwhile, this solution should be sufficient small in some Sobolev space as the time goes to the blowup time .
4.1 The approximation scheme
We will construct a local higher regular solution for nonlinear equations (3.1) by using a suitable new Nash-Moser iteration scheme, which has been used in [25, 27]. We introduce a family of smooth operators possessing the following properties.

The -th error terms are defined by
[TABLE]
which are also the nonlinear term in approximation problem (4.3) at . The exact form of nonlinear term (4.5) is very complicated, here we does not write it down. We carry out the tame estimates.
Lemma 4.2**.**

[TABLE]
On the other hand, note that , by (4.2) and (4.15)-(4.14), it holds
[TABLE]
This means that . Hence we conclude that (4.13) holds.
Furthermore, it follows from (4.13) that the error term goes to [math] as , i.e.

and equations (4.12) is transformed into equations of . Since is sufficient small and , we can follow above iteration scheme to obtain the local existence of for . Furthermore, the local solution of equations (4.12) with small initial data takes the form
[TABLE]
.
Moreover, we can choose the initial approximation function depending on the parameter continuity. Since the initial data depends on the parameter continuity when we solve the linearized system at each iteration step, so also depends on the parameter continuity. By the exact form of solutions which we constructed, it holds
[TABLE]
and
[TABLE]
then there exists a with such that
[TABLE]
Thus it holds
[TABLE]
At last, we recall the time-decay of each of approximation step given in (4.7), so we obtain
[TABLE]
This completes the proof.
