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…

This paper is concerned with entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws of the form $\partial_{t}u+\diver f=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^d\times(0,\infty)$. The flux $f=f(x,u)$ depends explicitly on the spatial variable $x$. Using an extension of…

In the case of scalar conservation laws $$ u_{t} + f(u)_{x}~=~0,\qquad t\geq 0, x\in\mathbb{R}, $$ with uniformly strictly convex flux $f$, quantitative compactness estimates - in terms of Kolmogorov entropy in ${\bf L}^{1}_{loc}$ - were…
