contents We investigate novel scenarios of self-similar finite-time blowups of the generalized Constantin-Lax-Majda model with a parameter $a$, which are induced by a new setting where the smooth initial data satisfy certain derivative degeneracy condition. In this setting, our numerical study reveals distinct self-similar blowup behaviors depending on the sign of $a$. For $a>0$, we observe one-scale self-similar blowups with regular profiles that have not been found in previous studies. In contrast, for $a\le 0$, we discover a novel two-scale self-similar blowup scenario where the outer profile converges to a singular function at the blowup time while the inner profile remains regular on a much smaller scale. Correspondingly, an $a$-parameterized family of singular self-similar profiles with explicit expressions are constructed for $a<0$ and shown to match nicely with the limiting profiles obtained in numerical simulation. In particular, for the specific case of $a=0$, we rigorously prove the convergence of the outer profile to an explicit singular function in self-similar coordinates. Furthermore, we demonstrate the two-scale nature of the blowup in this scenario by showing that the local inner profile behavior around the singularity point of the outer profile is governed by a traveling wave on a smaller scale. To support this observation, we rigorously establish the existence of such traveling wave solutions via a fixed-point method.
