Additional Notes: The first author was supported by NSF Applied Mathematics Grant Number DMS-060-3754.
The second author was supported by NSF Applied Mathematics Grant Number DMS-070-7532. The second author originally proposed the idea that a secondary expansion wave reflected backwards from the cosmic shock wave constructed in \cite{smolte1} might account for the anomalous acceleration of the galaxies in the talk \cite{temptalk} and NSF proposal DMS-060-3754, cf. \cite{smoltePNAS}.
