On the Hunter-Saxton equation

The Cauchy problem for a two-component Hunter-Saxton equation, begin{align*}(u_t+uu_x)_x&=frac{1}{2}u_x^2+frac{1}{2}rho^2,rho_t+(urho)_x) &= 0,end{align*}on $mathbb{R}times[0,infty)$ is studied. Conservative and dissipative weak solutions are defined and shown to exist globally. This...
