The Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers (KdVB) equation is a fundamental model capturing the interplay of nonlinearity, viscosity (dissipation), and dispersion, with broad physical relevance. It is well known that the KdVB equation admits traveling wave solutions, called viscous-dispersive shocks. These shock profiles are monotone in the viscosity-dominant regime, while they exhibit infinitely many oscillations when dispersion dominates. In this talk, we study the stability of such viscous-dispersive shocks, focusing on an L2 contraction property under arbitrarily large perturbations, up to a time-dependent shift. We begin with viscous shocks of the viscous Burgers equation (i.e., the KdVB equation without dispersion), then treat monotone viscous-dispersive shocks and finally address oscillatory shocks. We also present detailed structural properties of the oscillatory profiles. This is joint work with Geng Chen (University of Kansas), Moon-Jin Kang (KAIST), and Yannan Shen (University of Kansas).
