Abstract
This paper is a survey of some recent development on the zero-pressure gas dynamics. We will state the mechanism of delta-shock and its propagation, construct the solutions of one-dimensional and two-dimensional Riemann problems, and then prove the existence of solutions to the general Cauchy problem.
