Abstract
We address the open problem of existence of singularities for the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. Using a combination of rigorous results and numerical computations, we describe a countable family of self-similar singularities. Our analysis includes the supercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equation as a special case. We also consider the problem of stability of these singularities.
