β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, we prove that the C 0 boundedness of solution implies the global existence and uniqueness of C 1 solution to the mixed initial-boundary value problem for linearly degenerate, reducible quasilinear hyperbolic systems with nonlinear boundary conditions and we show by an example that the C 0 norm of solution may blow up in a ΓΏnite time. This gives the mechanism of the formation of singularities caused by the interaction of boundary conditions with nonlinear hyperbolic waves. The same result is still valid for the quasilinear hyperbolic system of rich type.

## Abstract One often believes that there is no shock formation for the Cauchy problem of quasilinear hyperbolic systems (of conservation laws) with linearly degenerate characteristic fields. It has been a conjecture for a long time (see __Arch. Rational Mech. Anal.__ 2004; **172**:65β91; __Compres
## Abstract We discuss Serre's restricted formulation of the notion of a measureβvalued solution, for a 2 Γ 2 system whose characteristic fields are both linearly degenerate. We prove existence, uniqueness, and regularity results for this formulation. As an application, we prove the convergence of
