Recent theoretical studies on Traveling Interplanetary Phenomena (TIP) and their relation or presumed relation to their solar origins will be reviewed. An attempt is made to outline the theoretical studies in the context of mathematical methods and physical processes. The following alternative approaches are examined: analytical vs. numerical methods; magnetohydrodynamics vs. hydrodynamics; processes with or without dissipation; continuum (macroscopic) vs. the kinetic (microscopic) approach. In particular, the flare-generated interplanetary shocks are used as examples to illustrate these theoretical studies within the context of TIP. Some emphasis will be placed on MHD wave propagation through the inner corona and its maturity to a fully-developed interplanetary shock. Further, their propagation and the disturbing effects on the solar wind will be considered. Cases concerning the classification and characteristics of blast-produced shocks and long-lasting ejecta are also discussed in the context of numerical simulations.
