Regularization of the Shock Wave Solution to the Riemann Problem for the Relativistic Burgers Equation

The regularization of the shock wave solution to the Riemann problem for the relativistic Burgers equation is considered. For Riemann initial data consisting of a single decreasing jump, we find that the regularization of nonlinear convective term cannot capture the correct shock wave solution. In o...
