We prove convergence of a class of space-time discontinuous Galerkin schemes for scalar hyperbolic conservation laws. Convergence to the unique entropy solution is shown for all orders of polynomial approximation, provided strictly monotone…

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 consider the initial value problem for a scalar conservation law in one space dimension with a single spatial flux discontinuity, the so-called two-flux problem. We prove that a well-known front tracking algorithm has a convergence rate…

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…

This paper is concerned with the stability of stationary solutions of the conservation law $\partial_t u + \mathrm{div}_y A(y,u) -\Delta_y u=0$, where the flux $A$ is periodic with respect to its first variable. Essentially two kinds of…

We consider inviscid limits to shocks for viscous scalar conservation laws in one space dimension, with strict convex fluxes. We show that we can obtain sharp estimates in $L^2$, for a class of large perturbations and for any bounded time…

We investigate Maxwell-scalar models on radially symmetric spacetimes in which the gauge and scalar fields are coupled via the electric permittivity. We find the conditions that allow for the presence of minimum energy configurations. In…

In this article, we develop what are, to the best of our knowledge, the first negative results for scalar conservation laws. We begin with explicit examples where bounded initial data leads to $L^{\infty}$ blow-up despite flux regularity.…

Conserved integrals and invariants (advected scalars) are studied for the equations of radial compressible fluid/gas flow in $n>1$ dimensions. Apart from entropy, which is a well-know invariant, three additional invariants are found from an…

We consider systems of conservation laws endowed with a convex entropy. We show the contraction, up to a translation, to extremal entropic shocks, for a pseudo-distance based on the notion of relative entropy. The contraction holds for…

In recent years, the use of entropy-regularized optimal transport with $L^p$-type entropies has become increasingly popular. In this setting, the solutions are sparse, in the sense that the support of the regularized optimal coupling,…
