| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the last two decades, many systems with weaker dissipation than diffusion are found to admit discontinuous traveling wave solutions if certain parameters exceed threshold values. Examples include radiating gas systems, saturating dissipation in the Burgers type equations, and hyperbolic systems with relaxation. This study aims to explain variations in the shock profiles in terms of stabilization mechanisms. We have proved the following facts for a simplified radiating gas system called Hamer's model. i) In all subcritical cases, radiation dominates over convection and the solution converges to a traveling wave solution without blowing up. ii) There are arbitrary small perturbations around the critical shock wave which cause blow up of the solution in a finite time. iii) In the supercritical cases, the existence of a discontinuity which satisfies the entropy condition helps convection to recover stability even in the L-infinity topology.
