It is shown that if the nondecreasing initial datum approaches the constant states $u_\pm$ ($u_-<u_+$) as $x\to \pm\infty$, respectively, then the corresponding solution converges toward the rarefaction wave, {\it i.e.} the unique entropy solution of the Riemann problem for the nonviscous Burgers equation.15 pagesAnalysis of PDEs60J60, 35B40,35K55,35Q53On convergence of solutions of fractal Burgers equation toward rarefaction wavestext
