I am trying to find the paper/book where they study problem (1),(3) given bellow using Vanishing viscosity method. I am especially interested in solutions in Sobolev spaces. A little bit of explanation: From Chapter 10 of "Hyperbolic partial differential equations", P. Lax, 2006: The vanishing viscosity method for solving the initial value problem for hyperbolic systems of conservation laws consists of finding solutions of $$(1) \hspace{1cm} u_t+A(u)\cdot u_x = 0 \hspace{1cm} A_{ij}=\frac{\partial{f_i}}{\partial{u_j}}, \hspace{1cm} u(x,0)=u_{0}(x)\\[2ex] $$ as the limit $\epsilon\rightarrow0$ of solutions of the parabolic system $$(2) \hspace{1cm} u_t+A(u)\cdot u_x = \epsilon u_{xx}.\\[2ex] $$ In literature, when solving problem (2), somethimes we have the same initial data $u_0$, sometimes smooth enough version $u_0^{\epsilon}$. But what about if data are not smooth? For example, if we have Riemann data: $$(3) \hspace{1cm} u(x,0)= \begin{cases} u_l, x<0 \\[2ex] u_r, x\geq 0 \end{cases}$$ or some other discontinuous initial data. **I am interested in** problems where we change initial data (3) to the smooth one, solve problem (2) with the smooth data (we get them for example, by convolution of Riemann data with a mollifier). At the end we connect it with the original problem (1), (3). So far I have found three works that study this problem but the solutions are not in the Sobolev spaces: 1.["Global Solutions of the Navier-Stokes Equations for Multidimensional Compressible Flow with Discontinuous Initial Data" - D. Hoff, 1995][1] 2.["Vanishing viscosity solutions of nonlinear hyperbolic systems" - S. Bianchini, A. Bressan, 2005][2] 3.["On the uniqueness of vanishing viscosity solutions for Riemann problems for polymer flooding" - W. Shen, 2017][3] [1]: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022039685711114 [2]: http://annals.math.princeton.edu/wp-content/uploads/annals-v161-n1-p06.pdf [3]: https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007%2Fs00030-017-0461-y.pdf
