Abstract: We investigate special
solutions of the KdV equation. These solutions
describe the neighboorhood of the point of gradient catastrophe
in problem of dispersion hydrodinamics. One of these solutions
is called Gurevish-Pitaevski solution. We calculate
the phase shift in Whitham zone for this solution
