# Self-similar solutions to nonlinear Dirac equations and an application to nonuniqueness

• Self-similar solutions to nonlinear Dirac systems (1) and (2) are constructed. As an application, we obtain nonuniqueness of strong solution in super-critical space $C([0, T]; H^{s}(\Bbb{R}))$ $(s<0)$ to the system (1) which is $L^2(\Bbb{R})$ scaling critical equations. Therefore the well-posedness theory breaks down in Sobolev spaces of negative order.
