Long-Time Behavior towards Generic Riemann Solutions for Radiative Euler Equations
Abstract
We study the time-asymptotic stability of generic Riemann solutions for the one-dimensional radiative Euler equations, where the Riemann pattern consists of a $1$-rarefaction wave, a $2$-contact discontinuity, and a $3$-shock wave. We prove that, for sufficiently small wave strengths and initial perturbations, the Cauchy problem admits a unique global solution, which converges uniformly as t→ ∞ to a composite wave of the $1$-rarefaction wave, $2$-viscous contact wave, and $3$-radiative shock profile with a time-dependent shift. As a key ingredient, we establish a comprehensive set of quantitative estimates for weak radiative shock profiles. Our proof is based on the method of a-contraction with shifts. In all previous applications of the a-contraction method to the study of long-time behavior, the proof has relied essentially on the parabolic structure provided by either viscosity or heat conduction. In this work, we extend the method to a hyperbolic-elliptic system without parabolic structure.
