A weak formulation for the so-called "semilinear strongly damped wave equation with constraint" is introduced and a corresponding notion of solution is defined. The main idea in this approach consists in the use of duality techniques in…
We extend the class of tempered stable distributions first introduced in Rosinski 2007. Our new class allows for more structure and more variety of tail behaviors. We discuss various subclasses and the relation between them. To characterize…
The recently found shock wave solution in the scalar field model with the field potential $V(\phi)=|\phi|$ is generalized to the case $V(\phi)=|\phi|-{1/2}\lambda\phi^2$. We find two kinds of the shock waves, which are analogous of…
We consider scalar nonviscous conservation laws with strictly convex flux in one spatial dimension, and we investigate the behavior of bounded L^2 perturbations of shock wave solutions to the Riemann problem using the relative entropy…
The stability of subcritical perpendicular fast magnetosonic shocks, which are propagating at 1.7 times the fast magnetosonic speed, is investigated using two-dimensional PIC simulations. The plasma, composed of electrons and fully ionized…
Two-dimensional steady supersonic ramp flows are important and well-studied flow patterns in aerodynamics. Vimercati, Kluwick and Guardone [J. Fluid Mech., 885 (2018) 445--468] constructed various self-similar composite wave solutions to…
This paper studies steady supersonic flow in a 2D semi-infinite divergent duct. We assume that the flow satisfies the slip boundary condition on the walls of the duct, and the state of the flow is given at the inlet of the divergent duct.…
Charge density waves are emergent quantum states that spontaneously reduce crystal symmetry, drive metal-insulator transitions, and precede superconductivity. In low-dimensions, distinct quantum states arise, however, thermal fluctuations…
We are concerned with the stability of multidimensional (M-D) transonic shocks in steady supersonic flow past multidimensional wedges. One of our motivations is that the global stability issue for the M-D case is much more sensitive than…

The propagation of nonlinear waves in one dimensional space, unsteady and compressible flow in Darcy-type porous media is analyzed. It is assumed that the weak discontinuity propagate long the characteristic path using the characteristics…
We consider the damped nonlinear Klein-Gordon equation with a delta potential \begin{align*} \partial_{t}^2u-\partial_{x}^2u+2\alpha \partial_{t}u+u-\gamma {\delta}_0u-|u|^{p-1}u=0, \ & (t,x) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}, \end{align*}…
We study singularity formation for the focusing quadratic wave equation in the energy supercritical case, i.e., for $d \geq 7$. We find in closed form a new, non-trivial, radial, self-similar blowup solution $u^*$ which exists for all $d…
We study the behaviour of solutions to a class of nonlinear degenerate parabolic problems when the data are perturbed. The class includes the Richards equation, Stefan problem and the parabolic $p$-Laplace equation. We show that, up to a…
There suggested a modification of the Dirac electron theory, eliminating its mathematical incompleteness. The modified Dirac electron, called dual, is described by two waves, one of which is the Dirac wave and the second dynamically…
The paper deals with scalar conservation laws having a flux discontinuity at $x=0$ without a weak solution that satisfies the classical Rankine--Hugoniot jump condition at $x=0$. We are using unbounded solutions in the form of shadow waves…
In most classical fluids, shock waves are strongly dissipative, their energy being quickly lost through viscous damping. But in systems such as cold plasmas, superfluids, and Bose-Einstein condensates, where viscosity is negligible or…

We consider the problem of supersonic flow of a Chaplygin gas past a delta wing with a shock or rarefaction wave attached to the leading edges. The flow under study is described by the three-dimensional steady Euler system. In conical…
