Asymptotic behavior of solutions to a hyperbolic system with relaxation and boundary effect (Q1570751): Difference between revisions

The authors study the initial boundary value problem for the system \(v_t+u_x=0\), \(u_t+\sigma (v)_x={1\over \varepsilon }(f(v)-u)\), \(x\in \mathbb{R}^+,\) initial data \((v_0(x),u_0(x))\rightarrow (v_+,u_+)\) (as \(x\rightarrow \infty)\) and boundary data \(v(0,t)=v_-.\) When the asymptotic states are stationary waves or rarefaction waves or superposition of these two waves, the authors prove the stability (for \(t\rightarrow \infty \)) of these wave patterns for small perturbations. The equality \(u_+=f(v_+)\) for the limit state is not required.
