The Jin-Xin relaxation approximation of scalar conservation laws in several dimensions with large initial perturbation (Q432445)

This paper is concerned with the global stability of the Cauchy problem for scalar conservation laws in 2-dimensions and to describe the large time behavior of its solution. The stability analysis is carried out for large initial perturbations and the 1-dimensional stability result is recovered. It is shown that the Cauchy problem admits a unique a global solution which tends to zero as time tends to infinity. The analysis is based on the energy method with the continuation argument that leads to the global stability result.
