\(L^{1}\)-convergence rates to the Barenblatt solution for the damped compressible Euler equations (Q1733217)

The authors extend result on the convergence of solutions of damped compressible Euler system to Barenblatt solutions of the porous medium equation in [\textit{F. Huang} et al., Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 200, No. 2, 665--689 (2011; Zbl 1229.35196)] to the case of general polytropic gas, and improve the convergence rates in $L^1$ norm. The argument is based on entropy estimates for bounded weak solutions of the Euler system and an iterative scheme.
