Abstract
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title>
<jats:p>In this work we introduce the <jats:italic>r</jats:italic>-Hunter–Saxton equation, a generalisation of the Hunter–Saxton equation arising as extremals of an action principle posed in <jats:italic>L</jats:italic>
<jats:sup>
<jats:italic>r</jats:italic>
</jats:sup>. We characterise solutions to the Cauchy problem, quantifying the blow-up time and studying various symmetry reductions. We construct piecewise linear functions and show that they are weak solutions to the <jats:italic>r</jats:italic>-Hunter–Saxton equation.</jats:p>

The current recommendation prototype on the Apollo Repository will be turned off on 03 February 2023. Although the pilot has been fruitful for both parties, the service provider IKVA is focusing on horizon scanning products and so the recommender service can no longer be supported. We recognise the importance of recommender services in supporting research discovery and are evaluating offerings from other service providers.
