The Kolmogorov entropy allows to split the dynamical systems that have equivalent continuous spectrum into non-isomorphic subclasses. In this paper we make an attempt to generalise the concept of entropy that will allow to split the systems…
Motivated by many applications (geophysical flows, general relativity), we attempt to set the foundations for a study of entropy solutions to nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws posed on a (Riemannian or Lorentzian) manifold. The flux of…
The paper is a part of an ongoing program which aims to show that the existential theory in free groups (hyperbolic groups or even toral relatively hyperbolic) is NP-complete. For that we study compression of solutions with straight-line…
We present a semiclassical proof of the weak gravity conjecture in $D = 4$ spacetime dimensions for scalar matter gauged under a $U(1)^N$ gauge group. We compute the non-perturbative macroscopic entropy of a scalar field in an extremal…
We propose a method for computing the Kolmogorov-Sinai (KS) entropy of chaotic systems. In this method, the KS entropy is expressed as a statistical average over the canonical ensemble for a Hamiltonian with many ground states. This…
We study the conformal capacity ${\rm cap}(\Omega,K)$ where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^2$ and $K$ is a compact connected set in $\Omega$. Because the exact numerical value of the capacity is known only in a handful of…
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…
We are concerned with the minimal entropy conditions for one-dimensional scalar conservation laws with general convex flux functions. For such scalar conservation laws, we prove that a single entropy-entropy flux pair $(\eta(u),q(u))$ with…
We prove that vanishing viscosity solutions to smooth non-degenerate systems of balance laws having small bounded variation, in one space dimension, must be functions of special bounded variation. For more than one equation, this is new…

We determine upper asymptotic estimates of Kolmogorov and linear $n$-widths of unit balls in Sobolev and Besov norms in $L_{p}$-spaces on smooth compact Riemannian manifolds. For compact homogeneous manifolds, we establish estimates which…
We consider entropy solutions to the initial value problem associated with scalar nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws posed on the two-dimensional sphere. We propose a finite volume scheme which relies on a web-like mesh made of segments…
For a class of weakly hyperbolic systems of the form D_t - A(t,x,D_x), where A(t,x,D_x) is a first-order pseudodifferential operator whose principal symbol degenerates like t^{l_*} at time t=0, for some integer l_* \geq 1, well-posedness of…
A well-known theorem of Lax and Wendroff states that if the sequence of approximate solutions to a system of hyperbolic conservation laws generated by a conservative consistent numerical scheme converges boundedly a.e. as the mesh parameter…
We propose a set-indexed family of capacities $\{\cap_G \}_{G \subseteq \R_+}$ on the classical Wiener space $C(\R_+)$. This family interpolates between the Wiener measure ($\cap_{\{0\}}$) on $C(\R_+)$ and the standard capacity…
In this work, we present another example of the Lagrangian 1-form structure for the hy- perbolic Calogero-Moser system both in discrete-time level and continuous-time level. The discrete-time hyperbolic Calogero-Moser system is obtained by…
We consider a genuinely nonlinear $1$-d system of hyperbolic conservation laws with two unknowns. A famous construction of Glimm & Lax shows that global-in-time "Glimm-Lax" weak entropy solutions exist in this setting for any initial data…
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 notion of entropy appears in many fields and this paper is a survey about entropies in several branches of Mathematics. We are mainly concerned with the topological and the algebraic entropy in the context of continuous endomorphisms of…
