Abstract In this paper, we introduce a method for computing rigorous local inclusions of solutions of Cauchy problems for nonlinear heat equations for complex time values. The proof is constructive and provides explicit bounds for the inclusion of the solution of the Cauchy problem, which is rewritten as a zero-finding problem on a certain Banach space. Using a solution map operator, we construct a simplified Newton operator and show that it has a unique fixed point. The fixed point together with its rigorous bounds provides the local inclusion of the solution of the Cauchy problem. The local inclusion technique is then applied iteratively to compute solutions over long time intervals. This technique is used to prove the existence of a branching singularity in the nonlinear heat equation. Finally, we introduce an approach based on the Lyapunov–Perron method for calculating part of a center-stable manifold and prove that an open set of solutions of the Cauchy problem converge to zero, hence yielding the global existence of the solutions in the complex plane of time.

Abstract Stationary waves of constant shape and constant propagation speed on rotational flows of two layers are computed numerically. Two layers are assumed to be of distinct constant vorticity distributions. Three different kinds of waves of finite depth are considered: pure capillary, capillary-gravity, and gravity waves. The problem is formulated as a bifurcation problem, which involves many parameters and produces a complicated structure of solutions. We adopted a numerical method by which waves with stagnation points can be computed, and obtained variety of new solutions. It is also reported that the locations of the stagnation points vary curiously with the prescribed parameters and that they offer an interesting problem.
