- We study the asymptotic dynamics of multi-bubble solutions to the focusing energy-critical wave equation in five dimensions. Assuming that the solution asymptotically decomposes into a finite superposition of spatially separated bubbles with comparable scales, we prove a rigidity result that describes the precise long-time behavior of these scales. More precisely, we show that all scaling parameters are necessarily of order $t^{-2}$, and that the corresponding renormalized modulation vector converges to a connected component of a finite-dimensional algebraic set determined by the limiting spatial configuration of the bubbles. This algebraic system encodes the strong interactions between the polynomial tails of the bubbles and governs the effective asymptotic dynamics of the multi-bubble regime.
