Local singularities of dynamical systems with shock interactions

Local (qualitative) singularities of a special class of dynamical systems with shock interactions are classified. For the first four of the specified types of local singularities, certain properties of the qualitative structure are described and used to establish the topological equivalence of the corresponding singularities.Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 64, No. 4, pp. 531–542, October, 1998.
