On the polynomial swallowtail and cusp singularities of stochastic Burgers equation

This thesis is concerned with singularities of the stochastic heat and Burgers equations. We study the classification of caustics (shockwaves) for Burgers equation and the level surfaces of the corresponding heat equation. Particular attention is paid to two examples of a two dimensional caustic, na...
