Abstract

In this paper, we study the global existence of the supersonic shock for the steady supersonic Euler flow past a curved 2-D wedge. By using the method of characteristic, we show that the shock exists globally and the flow between the shock and wedge is continuous provided the wedge is a small perturbation of a straight wedge under a weighted global Sobolev norm and the vertex angle is less than the extreme angle.
