Winter School: Shocks and Implosions in Fluids

January 6 - 9, 2026, The Fields Institute

Location: Fields Institute

Description

The main topics of this winter school will be the formation of implosion singularities in compressible fluids from smooth initial data, as well as inviscid limits for hyperbolic conservation laws with shock singularities. In particular, we will cover the works of [Cao-Labora, Gómez-Serrano, Shi, Staffilani, 2023] and [Anderson, Chaturvedi, Graham, 2025].

Lecturers:

  • Jia Shi (MIT), Cole Graham (UW Madison).
