β¦ Synopsis
For suitable
and F, we prove that all classical solutions of the quasilinear wave equation RR !( ( V ))
V "F(), with initial data of compact support, develop singularities in "nite time. The assumptions on and F include in particular the model case
O>, for q*2, and "$1. The starting point of the proof is to write the equation under the form of a "rst order system of two equations, in which F() appears as a nonlocal term. Then, we present a new idea to control the e!ect of this perturbation term, and we conclude the proof by using well-known methods developed for 2;2 systems of conservation laws.

In this paper, following the ideas of Lax, we prove a blow-up result for a class of solutions of the equation & -&x -&+xx -= 0, corresponding, in certain cases, to the development of a singularity in the second derivatives of 4. These solutions solve locally (in time) the Cauchy problem for smooth i
In this paper, we study the following semilinear integro-di!erential equation of the parabolic type that arise in the theory of nuclear reactor kinetics: under homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, where p, q\*1. We "rst establish the local solvability of a large class of semilinear non-local e
We study on the initial-boundary value problem for some degenerate non-linear wave equations of Kirchhoff type with a strong dissipation: When the initial energy associated with the equations is non-negative and small, a unique (weak) solution exists globally in time and has some decay properties.
