Abstract
The problem of the displacement of the interface between water and oil of an initial form such that a cusp is formed on this interface at a certain instant of time is considered in greater detail than in previo us investigations. It is assumed that the viscosity of the water is ma ny time smaller than that of the oil. Problems concerning the displace ment of similar lines (under more general assumptions) are briefly rev iewed. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
