Based on the double shockwave approximation procedure, a local Riemann solver for strongly nonlinear equations of state (EOS) such as the Jones-Wilkins-Lee (JWL) EOS is presented, which has suppressed successfully numerical oscillation caused by high-density ratio and high-pressure ratio across the interface between explosion products and air. The real ghost fluid method (RGFM) and the level set method have been used for converting multi-medium flows into pure flows and for implicitly tracking the interface, respectively. A fifth order finite difference weighted essentially non-oscillatory (WENO) scheme and a third order TVD Runge-Kutta method are utilized for the spatial discretization and the time advance, respectively. An enclosed-type MPI-based parallel methodology for the RGFM procedure on a uniform structured mesh is presented to realize the parallelization of three-dimensional {\color{red}(3D)} air explosion. The overall process of 3D air explosion of both TNT and aluminized explosives has been successfully simulated.

The irrationality exponent of an irrational number $\xi$, which measures the approximation rate of $\xi$ by rationals, is in general extremely difficult to compute explicitly, unless we know the continued fraction expansion of $\xi$. Results obtained so far are rather fragmentary and often treated case by case. In this work, we shall unify all the known results on the subject by showing that the irrationality exponents of large classes of automatic numbers and Mahler numbers (which are transcendental) are exactly equal to $2$. Our classes contain the Thue--Morse--Mahler numbers, the sum of the reciprocals of the Fermat numbers, the regular paperfolding numbers, which have been previously considered respectively by Bugeaud, Coons, and Guo, Wu and Wen, but also new classes such as the Stern numbers and so on. Among other ingredients, our proofs use results on Hankel determinants obtained recently by Han.

We study how conserved quantities such as angular momentum and center of mass evolve with respect to the retarded time at null infinity, which is described in terms of a Bondi-Sachs coordinate system. These evolution formulae complement the classical Bondi mass loss formula for gravitational radiation. They are further expressed in terms of the potentials of the shear and news tensors. The consequences that follow from these formulae are (1) Supertranslation invariance of the fluxes of the CWY conserved quantities. (2) A conservation law of angular momentum \`a la Christodoulou. (3) A duality paradigm for null infinity. In particular, the supertranslation invariance distinguishes the CWY angular momentum and center of mass from the classical definitions.
