Global Conservative Solutions to a Nonlinear Variational Wave Equation

Abstract

We establish the existence of a conservative weak solution to the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear variational wave equation utt - c(u)(c(u)ux)x=0, for initial data of finite energy. Here c(·) is any smooth function with uniformly positive bounded values.
