Abstract

This paper is concerned with the linear and nonlinear exponential stability of traveling wave solutions for a system of quasi-linear hyperbolic equations with relaxation. By applying C-0-semigroup theory and detailed spectral analysis, we prove the linear exponential stability of the traveling waves for the quasilinear systems and nonlinear exponential stability of the waves for semilinear systems, i.e., the Jin-Xin relaxation models, in some exponentially weighted spaces without assuming that the wave strengths are small.
