Abstract

We study the global wellposedness of pressureless Eulerian dynamics in multidimensions, with radially symmetric data. Compared with the one-dimensional system, a major difference in multidimensional Eulerian dynamics is the presence of the spectral gap, which is difficult to control in general. We propose a new pair of scalar quantities that provides significantly better control of the spectral gap. Two applications are presented: (i) the Euler--Poisson equations: we show a sharp threshold condition on initial data that distinguish global regularity and finite time blowup; (ii) the Euler-alignment equations: we show a large subcritical region of initial data that leads to global smooth solutions.
