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,…
We consider a general optimal control problem in the setting of gradient flows. Two approximations of the problem are presented, both relying on the variational reformulation of gradient-flow dynamics via the Weighted-Energy-Dissipation…
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…
This paper is concerned with entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws of the form $\partial_{t}u+\diver f=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^d\times(0,\infty)$. The flux $f=f(x,u)$ depends explicitly on the spatial variable $x$. Using an extension of…
We show the convergence of the zero relaxation limit in systems of $2 \times 2$ hyperbolic conservation laws with stochastic initial data. Precisely, solutions converge to a solution of the local equilibrium approximation as the relaxation…
We consider a class of nonlocal conservation laws modeling traffic flows, given by $ \partial_t \rho_\varepsilon + \partial_x(V(\rho_\varepsilon \ast \gamma_\varepsilon) \rho_\varepsilon) = 0 $ with a suitable convex kernel $…
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…
It is known that Flux Corrected Transport algorithms can produce entropy-violating solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws. Our purpose is to design flux correction with maximal antidiffusive fluxes to obtain entropy solutions of scalar…
The paper is concerned with a scalar balance law, where the source term depends on a control function $\alpha(t)$. Given a control $\alpha\in \mathbf{L}^\infty\bigl([0,T]\bigr)$, it is proved that, for generic initial data $\bar u \in…
In this article, we propose a MUSCL-Hancock-type second-order scheme for the discretization of a general class of non-local conservation laws and present its convergence analysis. The main difficulty in designing a MUSCL-Hancock-type scheme…
In this paper we consider convergence of approximate solutions of conservation laws. We start with an overview over the historical developments since the 1950s, and the analytical tools used in this context. Then we present some of our own…
We discuss the minimal integrability needed for the initial data, in order that the Cauchy problem for a multi-dimensional conservation law admit an entropy solution. In particular we allow unbounded initial data. We investigate also the…
We consider solutions of hyperbolic conservation laws regularized with vanishing diffusion and dispersion terms. Following a pioneering work by Schonbek, we establish the convergence of the regularized solutions toward discontinuous…
We study pathwise entropy solutions for scalar conservation laws with inhomogeneous fluxes and quasilinear multiplicative rough path dependence. This extends the previous work of Lions, Perthame and Souganidis who considered spatially…
The geometric entanglement entropy of a quantum field in the vacuum state is known to be divergent and, when regularized, to scale as the area of the boundary of the region. Here we introduce an operational definition of the entropy of the…
We present a compactness result in the space $GSBV^p$ which extends the classical statement due to Ambrosio to problems without a priori bounds on the deformations. As an application, we revisit the $\Gamma$-convergence results for free…
The explicit formulation of the general inverse problem on conservation laws is presented for the first time. In this problem one aims to derive the general form of systems of differential equations that admit a prescribed set of…
In this paper we consider a control system of the form $\dot x = F(x)u$, linear in the control variable $u$. Given a fixed starting point, we study a finite-horizon optimal control problem, where we want to minimize a weighted sum of an…
