L1 –stability of vortex sheets and entropy waves in steady supersonic Euler flows over Lipschitz walls by Chen, G-QG, Kukreja, V

“…In particular, when the total variation of the incoming flow perturbation around the background strong vortex sheet/entropy wave is small, we prove that the two-dimensional steady supersonic Euler flows containing a strong vortex sheet/entropy wave past the Lipschitz wall are L1-stable. The weak waves are reflected after the nonlinear waves interact with the strong vortex sheet/entropy wave and the wall boundary. …”
