The paper is concerned with a scalar conservation law with discontinuous gradient-dependent flux. Namely, the flux is described by two different functions $f(u)$ or $g(u)$, when the gradient $u_x$ of the solution is positive or negative,…
An evolution problem for abstract differential equations is studied. The typical problem is: $$\dot{u}=A(t)u+F(t,u), \quad t\geq 0; \,\, u(0)=u_0;\quad \dot{u}=\frac {du}{dt}\qquad (*)$$ Here $A(t)$ is a linear bounded operator in a Hilbert…

We study $\mathbf L^\infty$ entropy solutions to $2\times 2$ systems of conservation laws. We show that, if a uniformly convex entropy exists, these solutions satisfy a pair of kinetic equations (nonlocal in velocity), which are then shown…
In this article, we propose a novel front tracking scheme for scalar conservation laws with spatially heterogeneous, uniformly convex flux and prove that approximations converge to the unique entropy solution. The main tools are Dafermos'…
We are concerned with the minimal entropy conditions for one-dimensional scalar conservation laws with general convex flux functions. For such scalar conservation laws, we prove that a single entropy-entropy flux pair $(\eta(u),q(u))$ with…
Nonlinear scalar conservation laws are traditionally viewed as transport equations. We take instead the viewpoint of these PDEs as continuity equations with an implicitly defined velocity field. We show that a weak solution is the entropy…
We study a class of nonautonomous, linear, parabolic equations with unbounded coefficients on $\mathbb R^{d}$ which admit an evolution system of measures. It is shown that the solutions of these equations converge to constant functions as…
We deal with the Cauchy problem for multi-dimensional scalar conservation laws, where the fluxes and the source terms can be discontinuous functions of the unknown. The main novelty of the paper is the introduction of a~kinetic formulation…
We consider a conservation law model of traffic flow, where the velocity of each car depends on a weighted average of the traffic density $\rho$ ahead. The averaging kernel is of exponential type: $w_\varepsilon(s)=\varepsilon ^{-1}…
In this paper we study the evolution problem \[ \left\lbrace\begin{array}{ll} u_t (x,t)- \lambda_j(D^2 u(x,t)) = 0, & \text{in } \Omega\times (0,+\infty), \\ u(x,t) = g(x,t), & \text{on } \partial \Omega \times (0,+\infty), \\ u(x,0) =…
We prove the well-posedness of entropy weak solutions for a class of space-discontinuous scalar conservation laws with non-local flux arising in traffic modeling. We approximate the problem adding a viscosity term and we provide $L^\infty$…

Solutions to a class of conservation laws with discontinuous flux are constructed relying on the Crandall-Liggett theory of nonlinear contractive semigroups~\cite{CL}. In particular, the paper studies the existence of backward Euler…
We consider a class of stochastic kinetic equations, depending on two time scale separation parameters $\epsilon$ and $\delta$: the evolution equation contains singular terms with respect to $\epsilon$, and is driven by a fast ergodic…
This article studies the Cauchy problem for the scalar conservation law \[ \partial_t u + \partial_t w + \partial_x f(u) = 0, \] where $w(x,t) = [\mathcal{F}(u)(x,t)]$ is the output of a specific hysteresis operator, namely the Play…
