Abstract
In this paper we study the Riemann problem for a 2×2 system of conservation laws, whose solution need not be real-valued functions, but may contain δ-measures concentrated along some curves. We consider a parabolic approximation of the Riemann problem and obtain an explicit formula. Then the solution of the Riemann problem is obtained as the limit of this approximate solution.
