Global regularity problem

It is not known what happens to large smooth solutions in the defocusing case, even in the radial case. One may tentatively conjecture that global smooth solutions exist for generic large data, though perhaps not for exceptional large data.

This problem can be viewed as an extremely simplified (but still incredibly difficult) model problem for the global regularity issue for Navier-Stokes. By far the main difficulty is that all the known conserved and monotone quantities are supercritical with respect to scaling, and so we have no effective mechanism for long-term control of the solution.
