“…Even in the general case of systems which are neither genuinely nonlinear nor linearly degenerate, global solutions have been constructed by the Glimm scheme [18,21,23,27], by front tracking approximations [4,5], and by vanishing viscosity approximations [7]. In some special cases, existence and uniqueness of global solutions in the presence of a source term were proved in [16,22,12] and in [2,15,1,13,14], respectively.…”
