The transport and continuum equations exhibit a number of conservation laws. For example, scalar multiplication is conserved by the transport equation, while positivity of probabilities is conserved by the continuum equation. Certain…
We consider a nonlinear counterpart of a compactness lemma of J. Simon, which arises naturally in the study of doubly nonlinear equations of elliptic-parabolic type. Our work was motivated by previous results J. Simon, recently sharpened by…

The paper is devoted to a new approach of the homogenization of linear transport equations induced by a uniformly bounded sequence of vector fields $b_\epsilon(x)$, the solutions of which $u_\epsilon(t,x)$ agree at $t=0$ with a bounded…
We discuss a new class of coordinate systems for a plane, which provide an analytical representation of arbitrary straightline, and then define the form of potential on the plane, under which the equations of motion of a mass point are…
In this work we present a nonlocal conservation law with a velocity depending on an integral term over a part of the space. The model class covers already existing models in literature, but it is also able to describe new dynamics mainly…
