Large time step generalizations of Glimm's scheme for systems of conservation laws (Q751780): Difference between revisions

Two generalizations of Glimm's scheme for Courant numbers larger than 0.5 are discussed. For the first generalization it is shown that for any fixed Courant number if a sequence of approximate solutions converges to a limit u, then u is a weak solution. It is proven that the family of approximate solutions contains a convergent subsequence. For the second generalization it is shown that the family of approximate solutions for a system of isothermal gas dynamics equations contains a convergent subsequence provided that the total variation of the initial data is bounded.
