Abstract:

We study examples of the starlike interior “wake problem" for which no starlike solution exists relative to the natural star center of the problem. These examples show that the main result of D.E. Tepper in “A mathematical model for a wake” (Michigan Math. J. 31 (1984), 161–165) is not correct.
