Abstract

We consider the Burgers equation in the plane without external forces. It is known that for suitable initial data the corresponding complex solution has singularities at finite time [6]. The numerical solution of this equation can be seen as a first step in the study of the well-known problem of understanding the solutions of Navier-Stokes equations. The numerical solution of the Burgers equation is computed by using a proper integral equation. We describe the results obtained with this numerical method, and some possible extensions of the proposed method to deal with more practical problems.
