Abstract: | We consider viscosity and dispersion regularizations of the nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equation (u
t+uux)x=1/2u

with the simplest initial data such that u
x blows up in finite time. We prove that the zero-viscosity limit selects a unique global weak solution of the partial differential equation without viscosity. We also present numerical experiments which indicate that the zero-dispersion limit selects a different global weak solution of the same initial-value problem. |
