Invertibility of a Linearized Boussinesq Flow: A Symbolic Approach

Journal Article Communications in Mathematical Physics · November 1, 2025 We develop a computer-assisted symbolic method to show that a linearized Boussinesq flow in self-similar coordinates gives rise to an invertible operator. ... Full text Cite

Finite-time singularity formation for scalar stretching equations

Journal Article Nonlinearity · July 1, 2025 We consider equations of the type: (Formula presented) , for general linear operators R in any spatial dimension. We prove that such equations almost always exhibit finite-time singularities for smooth and localised solutions. Singularities can even form i ... Full text Cite
