On the two-dimensional cauchy problem of a hyperbolic system

From MaRDI portal





This paper is concerned with the global existence and uniqueness of a generalized solution of the hyperbolic system \[ u_t+\textstyle{\left({1\over 2}u^2\right)}_x=0,\quad v_t+\textstyle{\left({1\over 2}v^2\right)}_y=0,\quad \rho_t+(\rho u)_x+(\rho v)_y=0 \] with the initial conditions \(u(0,x)=u_0(x)\), \(v(0,y)=v_0(y)\), \(\rho(0,x,y)=\rho_0(x,y)\), where \(u_0,v_0\in L^\infty(\mathbb{R})\), and \(\rho_0\in L^1(\mathbb{R}^2)\). The generalized solution introduced by Lebesgue-Stieltjes integrals is the weak limit of viscous solutions when the viscosity vanishes. In the last section, the author solves the two-dimensional problem with some initial constant data in four quadrants and shows that the solution involves data-waves.
