We prove the SBV regularity of the characteristic speed of the scalar hyperbolic conservation law and SBV-like regularity of the eigenvalue functions of the Jacobian matrix of flux function for general systems of conservation laws. More…

We show that the Cauchy Problem for a randomly forced, periodic multi-dimensional scalar first-order conservation law with additive or multiplicative noise is well-posed: it admits a unique solution, characterized by a kinetic formulation…

Let $u(t,x)$ be the solution to the Cauchy problem of a scalar conservation law in one space dimension. It is well known that even for smooth initial data the solution can become discontinuous in finite time and global entropy weak solution…
We consider the Cauchy problem for a multidimensional scalar conservation law and construct an outer estimate for the domain of dependence of its Kruzkov solution. The estimate can be represented as the controllability set of a specific…
In some models involving nonlinear conservation laws, physical mechanisms exist which prevent the formation of shocks. This gives rise to conservation laws with a constraint on the gradient of the solution. We approach this problem by…
We show that, for first-order systems of conservation laws with a strictly convex entropy,in particular for the very simple so-called "inviscid" Burgers equation,it is possible to address the Cauchy problem by a suitable convex…
The scaling of the exact solution of a hyperbolic balance law generates a family of scaled problems in which the source term does not depend on the current solution. These problems are used to construct a sequence of solutions whose…
We consider finite-entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws $u_t +a(u)_x =0$, that is, bounded weak solutions whose entropy productions are locally finite Radon measures. Under the assumptions that the flux function $a$ is strictly…
The theory of weak solutions for nonlinear conservation laws is now well developed in the case of scalar equations [3] and for one-dimensional hyperbolic systems [1, 2]. For systems in several space dimensions, however, even the global…
The aim of this article is to investigate the uniqueness of solution of an inverse problem for ultrahyperbolic equations. We first reduce the inverse problem to a Cauchy problem for an integro-differential equation and then by using a…

In this paper, we study the decay rate in time to solutions of the Cauchy problem for the one-dimensional viscous conservation law where the far field states are prescribed. Especially, we deal with the case that the flux function which is…
We study the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for scalar conservation laws with discontinuous, non-degenerate fluxes. Locally, the fluxes are piecewise smooth across interfaces described by a Heaviside-type discontinuity, with left and…
We propose a numerical method to solve an inverse source problem of computing the initial condition of hyperbolic equations from the measurements of Cauchy data. This problem arises in thermo- and photo- acoustic tomography in a bounded…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the focusing Hartree equation $iu_{t}+\Delta u+(|\cdot|^{-3}\ast|u|^{2})u=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^{5}$ with the initial data in $H^1$, and study the divergent property of infinite-variance and nonradial…
We establish the existence of a conservative weak solution to the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear variational wave equation $u_{tt} - c(u)(c(u)u_x)_x=0$, for initial data of finite energy. Here $c(\cdot)$ is any smooth function with…
We provide global and semi-global controllability results for hyperbolic conservation laws on a bounded domain, with a general (not necessarily convex)flux and a time-dependent source term acting as a control. The results are achieved for,…
