Stability of strong viscous shock wave under periodic perturbation for 1-D isentropic Navier-Stokes system in the half space

In this paper, a viscous shock wave under space-periodic perturbation of 1-D isentropic Navier-Stokes system in the half space is investigated. It is shown that if the initial periodic perturbation around the viscous shock wave is small, then the solution time asymptotically tends to a viscous shock wave with a shift partially determined by the periodic oscillations. Moreover, the strength of {the} shock wave could be arbitrarily large. This result essentially improves the previous work " A. Matsumura, M. Mei, Convergence to travelling fronts of solutions of the p-system with viscosity in the presence of a boundary. Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 146 (1999), no. 1, 1-22." where the strength of shock wave is sufficiently small and the initial periodic oscillations vanish.
