We say that a formal deformation from an algebra $N$ to algebra $A$ is strongly flat if for every real number $e $ there is a real number $0<s<e$ such that this deformation specialised at $t=s$ gives an algebra isomorphic to $A$. We show…

We consider a singular parabolic equation of form \[ u_t = u_{xx} + \frac{\alpha}{2}(\mathrm{sgn}\,u_x)_x \] with periodic boundary conditions. Solutions to this kind of equations exhibit competition between smoothing due to one-dimensional…
