Abstract

This paper is devoted to studying the inflow problem for an ideal polytropic model with non-viscous gas in one-dimensional half space. We show the existence of the boundary layer in different areas. By employing the energy method, we also prove the unique global-in-time existence of the solution and the asymptotic stability of both the boundary layers, the $3$‑rarefaction wave and their superposition wave under some smallness conditions. Series of simple but tricky operations on boundary need to be carefully done by taking good advantage of construction on the system and domain properties.
