The interrelationships of ‘complex’ conodonts (Vertebrata)

SYNOPSIS Little attention has been paid to the suprageneric classification for conodonts and existing schemes have been formulated without attention to homology, diagnosis and definition. We propose that cladisticsprovidesanappropriatemethodology to test existing schemesof classification and in which to explore the evolutionary relationships of conodonts.

A catalogue of singularities

This paper is an attempt to classify finite-time singularities of PDEs. Most of the problems considered describe free-surface flows, which are easily observed experimentally. We consider problems where the singularity occurs at a point, and where typical scales of the solution shrink to zero as the singularity is approached. Upon a similarity transformation, exact self-similar behaviour is mapp...
