Conservation laws are usually studied in the context of sufficient regularity conditions imposed on the flux function, usually $C^{2}$ and uniform convexity. Some results are proven with the aid of variational methods and a unique minimizer…

To ensure the discrete maximum principle or solution positivity in finite volume schemes, diffusive flux is sometimes discretized as a conical combination of finite differences. Such a combination may be impossible to construct along…
In this work we consider companion conservation laws to general systems of conservation laws. We investigate sufficient regularity for weak solutions to satisfy companion laws, assuming the fluxes to be $C^{1,\gamma}$, $0<\gamma<1$,…
