Abstract: In this paper, by using the theory of compensated compactness coupled with the kinetic formulation by Lions, Perthame, Souganidis and Tadmor cite{LPT,LPS}, we prove the existence and nonexistence of global generalized (nonnegative) solutions of the nonlinearly degenerate wave equations vtt=c(|v|s−1v)xx with the nonnegative initial data v0(x) and s>1. This result is an extension of the results in the second author's paper cite{Su}, where the existence and the nonexistence of the unique global classical solution were studied with a threshold on int−inftyinftyv1(x)dx and the non-degeneracy condition v0(x)geqc0>0 on the initial data.
