Existence of quasilinear relaxation shock profiles in systems with characteristic velocities

Guy MétivierBenjamin TexierKevin Zumbrun — 2012

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

We revisit the existence problem for shock profiles in quasilinear relaxation systems in the case that the velocity is a characteristic mode, implying that the profile ODE is degenerate. Our result states existence, with sharp rates of decay and distance from the Chapman–Enskog approximation, of small-amplitude quasilinear relaxation shocks. Our method of analysis follows the general approach used by Métivier and Zumbrun in the semilinear case, based on Chapman–Enskog expansion and the macro–micro...
