Well-posedness of a modified initial-boundary value problem on stability of shock waves in a viscous gas. Part I

The shock wave in a viscous gas which is treated as a strong discontinuity is unstable against small perturbations [A.M. Blokhin, On stability of shock waves in a compressible viscous gas, Matematiche LVII (I) (2002) 3–19]. We suggest such additional boundary conditions that a modified (with account to these conditions) linear initial-boundary value problem on stability of the shock wave does not admit Hadamardtype ill-posedness examples. © 2006 Elsevier Inc.
