The interactions of elementary waves for the relativistic Euler equations are shown. The collision of two shocks, two centered rarefaction waves, a shock and a rarefaction wave yield corresponding ransmitted waves. The overtaking of two shocks appears a transmitted shock wave, together with a reflected centered rarefaction wave.展开更多

This problem has been studied by Sun and Sheng, however the so-called degenerate shock solutions did not satisfy the R-H condition. In the present paper, the Riemann solutions of twelve regions in the v - u plane are completely constructed by the Liu-entropy condition. Our Riemann solutions are very different to that one obtained by Sun and Sheng in some regions.展开更多

By constructing an example, first it is illustrated that the classical solution to this kind of Cauchy problem may blow up in a finite time, even if the system is weakly linearly degenerate. Then some lower bounds of the life-span of classical solutions are given in the case that the system is weakly linearly degenerate. These estimates imply that, when the system is weakly linearly degenerate, the classical solution exists almost globally in time. Finally, it is proved that Theorems 1.1-1.3 in [2] are still valid for this kind of initial data.展开更多
