Existence of quasilinear relaxation shock profiles

Guy Metivier, Benjamin Texier, Kevin Zumbrun

We establish existence with sharp rates of decay and distance from the Chapman--Enskog approximation of small-amplitude quasilinear relaxation shocks in the general case that the p…

Asymptotic theory for the semiparametric accelerated failure time model with missing data

Bin Nan, John D. Kalbfleisch, Menggang Yu

We consider a class of doubly weighted rank-based estimating methods for the transformation (or accelerated failure time) model with missing data as arise, for example, in case-coh…

Existence and sharp localization in velocity of small-amplitude Boltzmann shocks

Guy Metivier, Kevin Zumbrun

Using a weighted -contraction mapping argument based on the macro-micro decomposition of Liu and Yu, we give an elementary proof of existence, with sharp rates of decay and di…

The Transverse Instability of Periodic Waves in Zakharov-Kuznetsov Type Equations

Mathew A. Johnson

In this paper, we investigate the instability of one-dimensionally stable periodic traveling wave solutions of the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation to long wavelength transve…
