Analytic-numerical description of asymptotic solutions of a Cauchy problem in a neighborhood of singularities for a linearized system of shallow-water equations

Abstract

S. Yu. Dobrokhotov, B. Tirozzi, S. Ya. Sekerzh-Zenkovich, A. I. Shafarevich, and their co-authors suggested new effective asymptotic formulas for solving a Cauchy problem with localized initial data for multidimensional linear hyperbolic equations with variable coefficients and, in particular, for a linearized system of shallow-water equations over an uneven bottom in their cycle of papers. The solutions are localized in a neighborhood of fronts on which focal points and self-intersection points (singular points) occur in the course of time, due to the variability of the coefficients. In the present paper, a numerical realization of asymptotic formulas in a neighborhood of singular points of fronts is presented in the case of the system of shallow-water equations, gluing problems for these formulas together with formulas for regular domains are discussed, and also a comparison of asymptotic solutions with solutions obtained by immediate numerical computations is carried out.
