The existence of multi-dimensional shock fronts /

The short-time existence of discontinuous shock front solutions of a system of conservation laws in several space variables is proved below under suitable hypotheses. These shock front solutions are nonlinear progressing wave solutions associated with the nonlinear wave fields. The results developed...
