In this paper the convolution integrals $\int_0^t(t-s)^{\lambda -1}b(s)ds$ with hyper-singular kernels are considered, where $\lambda\le 0$ and $b$ is a smooth or $b$ is in $L^1(\mathbb{R}_+)$. For such $\lambda$ these integrals diverge…

We study the nonlinear inhomogeneous wave equation in one space dimension: $v_{tt} - T(v,x)_{xx} = 0$. By constructing some "decoupled" Riccati type equations for smooth solutions, we provide a singularity formation result without…

The weak solution to the Navier-Stokes equations in a bounded domain $D \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ with a smooth boundary is proved to be unique provided that it satisfies an additional requirement. This solution exists for all $t \geq 0$. In a…

Several methods for solving efficiently the one-dimensional deconvolution problem are proposed. The problem is to solve the Volterra equation ${\mathbf k} u:=\int_0^t k(t-s)u(s)ds=g(t),\quad 0\leq t\leq T$. The data, $g(t)$, are noisy. Of…
