We study a 1D scalar conservation law whose non-local flux has a single spatial discontinuity. This model is intended to describe traffic flow on a road with rough conditions. We approximate the problem through an upwind-type numerical…
In the case of scalar conservation laws $$ u_{t} + f(u)_{x}~=~0,\qquad t\geq 0, x\in\mathbb{R}, $$ with uniformly strictly convex flux $f$, quantitative compactness estimates - in terms of Kolmogorov entropy in ${\bf L}^{1}_{loc}$ - were…
We study the BGK approximation to first-order scalar conservation laws with a flux which is discontinuous in the space variable. We show that the Cauchy Problem for the BGK approximation is well-posed and that, as the relaxation parameter…
We deal with the problem of approximating a scalar conservation law by a conservation law with nonlocal flux. As convolution kernel in the nonlocal flux, we consider an exponential-type approximation of the Dirac distribution. This enables…
We study in what sense one can determine the function $k=k(x)$ in the scalar hyperbolic conservation law $u_t+(k(x)f(u))_x=0$ by observing the solution $u(t,\dott)$ of the Cauchy problem with initial data $u|_{t=0}=u_o$.
We use Velocity Averaging lemma to show that the almost everywhere limit of quasilinear viscous approximations is the unique entropy solution (in the sense of {\it F. Otto}) of the corresponding scalar conservation laws on a bounded domain…
In this paper, we propose a Hamiltonian regularization of scalar conservation laws, which is parametrized by $\ell > 0$ and conserves an $H^1$ energy. We prove the existence of global weak solutions for this regularization. Furthermore, we…
We prove that the entropy solution to a scalar conservation law posed on the real line with a flux that is discontinuous at one point (in the space variable) coincides with the derivative of the solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) equation…
In this paper we study by probabilistic techniques the convergence of the value function for a two-scale, infinite-dimensional, stochastic controlled system as the ratio between the two evolution speeds diverges. The value function is…
Because scaling symmetries of the Euler-Lagrange equations are generally not variational symmetries of the action, they do not lead to conservation laws. Instead, an extension of Noether's theorem reduces the equations of motion to…
Under a precise genuine nonlinearity assumption we establish the decay of entropy solutions of a multidimensional scalar conservation law with merely continuous flux and with initial data being a sum of periodic function and a function…
We study the Cauchy problem for a multidimensional scalar conservation law on the Bohr compactification of $\R^n$. The existence and uniqueness of entropy solutions are established in the general case of merely continuous flux vector. We…
Large time behavior of solutions to abstract differential equations is studied. The corresponding evolution problem is: $$\dot{u}=A(t)u+F(t,u)+b(t), \quad t\ge 0; \quad u(0)=u_0. \qquad (*)$$ Here $\dot{u}:=\frac {du}{dt}$, $u=u(t)\in H$,…
In this paper, we first investigate quasi-entropy solutions to scalar conservation laws in several space dimensions. In this setting, we introduce a suitable Lagrangian representation for such solutions. Next, we prove that, in one space…
This paper deals with the derivation of entropy solutions to Cauchy problems for a class of scalar conservation laws with space-density depending fluxes from systems of deterministic particles of follow-the-leader type. We consider fluxes…
We consider the Cauchy problem for a strictly hyperbolic, $n\times n$ system in one space dimension: $u_t+A(u)u_x=0$, assuming that the initial data has small total variation. We show that the solutions of the viscous approximations…
We consider conservation laws with nonlocal velocity and show for nonlocal weights of exponential type that the unique solutions converge in a weak or strong sense (dependent on the regularity of the velocity) to the entropy solution of the…
In this article, we present a method to find a solution to a one-dimensional nonlocal conservation law that respects a space-dependent mapping, referred to as the obstacle. This is achieved by generalizing existing results for the local…
We prove regularity estimates for entropy solutions to scalar conservation laws with a force. Based on the kinetic form of a scalar conservation law, a new decomposition of entropy solutions is introduced, by means of a decomposition in the…
