Conjecture on asymptotic stability of steady shocks for relativistic Burgers flow

Let M>0M>0, let v=v(t,r)[1,1]v=v(t,r)\in[-1,1] solve the relativistic Burgers equation on the Schwarzschild exterior r>2Mr>2M, and let the initial data be a compactly perturbed steady shock. Asymptotic steady-shock conjecture. The solution converges asymptotically in time to a steady state shock. This proposes late-time stability of steady shocks under compactly supported perturbations; the source presents it as an issue investigated numerically, and no proof or resolution is supplied.
