The solutions of the equations of parabolic type describing the development of the flow in an axisymmetric wake under the influence of viscosity and an adverse pressure gradient are considered. It is then shown that in the general case in the neighborhood of the stagnation point on the axis of the wake the solution is a singular one, the possibility of its continuation beyond the stagnation point being excluded. The following solutions are also obtained: a regular solution in the neighborhood of the stagnation point and a singular solution continuable downstream. This singular solution is the limit for the class of regular solutions having a minimum in the velocity distribution on the axis as the minimum velocity tends to zero.
