Global classical discontinuous solutions to a class of generalized riemann problem for general quasilinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws

摘要

In this paper, the authors prove the global existence and uniqueness of piecewise C~1 solution u = u(t, x) containing only n contact discontinuities with small amplitude to the generalized Riemann problem for general linearly degenerate quasilinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws with small decay initial data. This solution has a global structure similar to the similarity solution u = U(x/t) to the corresponding Riemann problem. The result shows that the similarity solution u = U(x/t) possesses a global nonlinear structural stability.
