Radiation fields

Piotr T. Chruściel, Olivier Lengard (2005)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We study the “hyperboloidal Cauchy problem” for linear and semi-linear wave equations on Minkowski space-time, with initial data in weighted Sobolev spaces allowing singular behavior at the boundary, or with polyhomogeneous initial data. Specifically, we consider nonlinear symmetric hyperbolic systems of a form which includes scalar fields with a λ φ p nonlinearity, as well as wave maps, with initial data given on a hyperboloid; several of the results proved apply to general space-times admitting conformal...

Singular solutions to systems of conservation laws and their algebraic aspects

V. M. Shelkovich* (2010)

Banach Center Publications

We discuss the definitions of singular solutions (in the form of integral identities) to systems of conservation laws such as shocks, δ-, δ’-, and δ ( n ) -shocks (n = 2,3,...). Using these definitions, the Rankine-Hugoniot conditions for δ- and δ’-shocks are derived. The weak asymptotics method for the solution of the Cauchy problems admitting δ- and δ’-shocks is briefly described. The algebraic aspects of such singular solutions are studied. Namely, explicit formulas for flux-functions of singular solutions...

Solutions globales ( - < t < + ) des systèmes paraboliques de lois de conservation

Denis Serre (1998)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Nous considérons ici des solutions particulières des systèmes paraboliques de lois de conservation dans le domaine x > 0 ou bien pour x : t u + x f ( u ) = x 2 u . Nous faisons l’hypothèse que le système réduit t u + x f ( u ) = 0 est hyperbolique. Notre but est la description de l’interaction d’ondes simples, mono-dimensionnelles, le plus souvent deux ondes exactement. L’une d’elle, au moins, est une onde de choc (pour le système réduit) visqueuse (pour le système parabolique). Il y a donc a priori un champ caractéristique vraiment non linéaire....

Stabilité L 1 d’ondes progressives de lois de conservation scalaires

Denis Serre (1998/1999)

Séminaire Équations aux dérivées partielles

A powerfull method has been developped in [2] for the study of L 1 -stability of travelling waves in conservation laws or more generally in equations which display L 1 -contractivity, maximum principle and mass conservation. We recall shortly the general procedure. We also show that it partly applies to the waves of a model of radiating gas. These waves have first been studied by Kawashima and Nishibata [5,6] in a different framework. Therefore, shock fronts for this model are stable under mild perturbations....
