In this paper we consider a singular wave equation with distributional and more singular non-distributional coefficients and develop tools and techniques for the phase-space analysis of such problems. In particular we provide a detailed…

Departure from idealised plane waves gives rise to intricate geometric structures in wave fields. One such structure is the polarisation singularity, which emerges when multiple monochromatic waves interfere (such as would be the case for…

This article is the first of two in which we develop a geometric framework for analysing silent and anisotropic big bang singularities. The results of the present article concern the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to linear systems of…

The question of what conditions should be set at the nodes of a discrete graph for the wave equation with discrete time is investigated. The variational method for the derivation of these conditions is used. A parallel with the continuous…

We study the Korteweg--de Vries equation on a metric star graph and investigate existence of solitary waves on the metric graph in terms of the coefficients of the equation on each edge, the coupling condition at the central vertex of the…

We consider the simplest instabilities involving multiple unstable electrostatic plasma waves corresponding to four-dimensional systems of mode amplitude equations. In each case the coupled amplitude equations are derived up to third order…

The first part of my thesis lays the foundations to generalized Lorentz geometry. The basic algebraic structure of finite-dimensional modules over the ring of generalized numbers is investigated. The motivation for this part of my thesis…

We describe various aspects of plane wave backgrounds. In particular, we make explicit a simple criterion for singularity by establishing a relation between Brinkmann metric entries and diffeomorphism-invariant curvature information. We…

We prove local unique solvability of the wave equation for a large class of weakly singular, locally bounded space-time metrics in a suitable space of generalised functions.

In this work we give new regularity results of solutions for the linear wave equation set in a nonsmooth cylindrical domain. Different types of conditions are imposed on the boundary of the singular domain. Our study is performed in some…

We consider a planar waveguide with combined Dirichlet and Neumann conditions imposed in a "twisted" way. We study the discrete spectrum and describe it dependence on the configuration of the boundary conditions. In particular, we show that…

The family of metrics corresponding to the plane-fronted gravitational waves with parallel propagation, commonly referred to as the family of pp-wave metrics, is studied in the context of various modified gravitational models in a…

We prove uniqueness of solutions to the wave map equation in the natural class, namely $ (u, \partial_t u) \in C([0,T); \dot{H}^{d/2})\times C^1([0,T); \dot{H}^{d/2-1})$ in dimensions $d\geq 4$. This is achieved through estimating the…

An exact solution is found describing the collision of axisymmetric pp-waves with M=0. They are impulsive in character and their coordinate singularities become point curvature singularities at the boundaries of the interaction region. The…

We consider approximate, exact, and numerical solutions to the cylindrical Korteweg-de Vries equation. We show that there are different types of solitary waves and obtain the dependence of their parameters on distance. Then, we study the…

In this paper, persistence of solitary wave solutions of the regularized long wave equation with small perturbations are investigated by the geometric singular perturbation theory. Two different kinds of the perturbations are considered in…

We investigate the existence and the singular structure of delta wave solutions to a semilinear strictly hyperbolic equation with strongly singular initial and boundary conditions. The boundary conditions are given in nonlocal form with a…

We study the local well-posedness of a periodic nonlinear equation for surface waves of moderate amplitude in shallow water. We use an approach due to Kato which is based on semigroup theory for quasi-linear equations. We also show that…

In this paper, we consider a kind of shallow water wave model called the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili-Benjamin-Bona-Mahony (KP-BBM) equation. We firstly consider the unperturbed KP-BBM equation. Then by using the geometric singular perturbation…

Recent asymptotic results by the authors provided detailed information on the shape of solitary high-energy travelling waves in FPU atomic chains. In this note we use and extend the methods to understand the linearisation of the travelling…
