On the existence of shock propagation in a flow through deformable porous media
We consider a one-dimensional incompressible flow through a porous medium undergoing deformations such that the porosity and the hydraulic conductivity can be considered to be functions of the flux intensity. The medium is initially dry and we neglect capillarity, so that a sharp wetting front proceeds into the medium. We consider the open problem of the continuation of the solution in the case of onset of singularities, which can be interpreted as a local collapse of the medium, in the general...

On the nonhamiltonian character of shocks in 2-D pressureless gas
The paper deals with the 2-D system of gas dynamics without pressure which was introduced in 1970 by Ua. Zeldovich to describe the formation of largescale structure of the Universe. Such system occurs to be an intermediate object between the systems of ordinary differential equations and hyperbolic systems of PDE. The main its feature is the arising of singularities: discontinuities for velocity and d-functions of various types for density. The rigorous notion of generalized solutions in terms of...
On the relation between the Maslov-Whitham method and the weak asymptotics method
We explain the relation between the weak asymptotics method introduced by the author and V. M. Shelkovich and the classical Maslov-Whitham method for constructing approximate solutions describing the propagation of nonlinear solitary waves.

On the Transition from Deflagration to Detonation in Narrow Channels
A numerical study of a two-dimensional model for premixed gas combustion in a narrow, semi-infinite channel with no-slip boundary condition is performed. The work is motivated by recent theoretical advances revealing the major role of hydraulic resistance in deflagration-to-detonation transition, one of the central yet still inadequately understood phenomena of gaseous combustion. The work is a continuation and extension of recently reported results over non-isothermal boundary conditions, wider...

Radiation fields
We study the “hyperboloidal Cauchy problem” for linear and semi-linear wave equations on Minkowski space-time, with initial data in weighted Sobolev spaces allowing singular behavior at the boundary, or with polyhomogeneous initial data. Specifically, we consider nonlinear symmetric hyperbolic systems of a form which includes scalar fields with a nonlinearity, as well as wave maps, with initial data given on a hyperboloid; several of the results proved apply to general space-times admitting conformal...

Singular solutions to systems of conservation laws and their algebraic aspects
We discuss the definitions of singular solutions (in the form of integral identities) to systems of conservation laws such as shocks, δ-, δ’-, and -shocks (n = 2,3,...). Using these definitions, the Rankine-Hugoniot conditions for δ- and δ’-shocks are derived. The weak asymptotics method for the solution of the Cauchy problems admitting δ- and δ’-shocks is briefly described. The algebraic aspects of such singular solutions are studied. Namely, explicit formulas for flux-functions of singular solutions...
