The Korteweg-de Vries equation u_t+uu_x+u_{xxx}=0 is PT symmetric (invariant under space-time reflection). Therefore, it can be generalized and extended into the complex domain in such a way as to preserve the PT symmetry. The result is the…

In this paper, we study the limits of Riemann solutions to the inhomogeneous Euler equations of one-dimensional compressible fluid flow as the adiabatic exponent $\gamma$ tends to one. Different from the homogeneous equations, the Riemann…
