In this paper, we investigate the existence of global weak solutions to an integrable two-component Camassa–Holm shallow-water system, provided the initial data u0(x) and ρ0(x) have end states u± and ρ±, respectively. By perturbing the Cauchy problem of the system around rarefaction waves of the well-known Burgers equation, we obtain a global weak solution for the system under the assumptions u− ≤ u+ and ρ− ≤ ρ+.
