Abstract

We consider the Riemann problem for a system of mixed type that defines two hyperbolic phases satisfying general genuinely non linear hypothesis. We describe here all the global Riemann solvers that are continuous for theL ldistance with respect to initial data while conserving the natural symmetry properties of the system and coincinding with the Lax solution when defined.
