The paper explores three known methods, their variants and limitations, that can be used to obtain new entropy inequalities. The Copy Lemma was distilled from the original Zhang-Yeung construction which produced the first non-Shannon…

In this work we present a rather general approach to approximate the solutions of nonlocal conservation laws. In a first step, we approximate the nonlocal term with an appropriate quadrature rule applied to the spatial discretization. Then,…
The infinitary lambda calculi pioneered by Kennaway et al. extend the basic lambda calculus by metric completion to infinite terms and reductions. Depending on the chosen metric, the resulting infinitary calculi exhibit different notions of…
We construct stochastic multisymplectic systems by considering a stochastic extension to the variational formulation of multisymplectic partial differential equations proposed in [Hydon, {\it Proc. R. Soc. A}, 461, 1627--1637, 2005]. The…
This paper is a survey of methods for solving smooth (strongly) monotone stochastic variational inequalities. To begin with, we give the deterministic foundation from which the stochastic methods eventually evolved. Then we review methods…
Measure-theoretic slow entropy is a more refined invariant than the classical measure-theoretic entropy to characterize the complexity of dynamical systems with subexponential growth rates of distinguishable orbit types. In this paper we…
In this paper we establish well-posedness for scalar conservation laws on closed manifolds M endowed with a constant or a time-dependent Riemannian metric for initial values in L^\infty(M). In particular we show the existence and uniqueness…
We consider the entropy of sums of independent discrete random variables, in analogy with Shannon's Entropy Power Inequality, where equality holds for normals. In our case, infinite divisibility suggests that equality should hold for…
As an alternative to the well-known methods of "chaining" and "bracketing" that have been developed in the study of random fields, a new method, which is based on a {\em stochastic maximal inequality} derived by using the formula for…
Dynamical PDEs that have a spatial divergence form possess conservation laws that involve an arbitrary function of time. In one spatial dimension, such conservation laws are shown to describe the presence of an $x$-independent source/sink;…
Symmetry properties of conservation laws of partial differential equations are developed by using the general method of conservation law multipliers. As main results, simple conditions are given for characterizing when a conservation law…
The parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel equation with sensitivity saturation, because of its pattern formation ability, is a challenge for numerical simulations. We provide two finite-volume schemes whose goals are to preserve, at the discrete…
In 2010 Menon and Srinivasan published a conjecture for the statistical structure of solutions $\rho$ to scalar conservation laws with certain Markov initial conditions, proposing a kinetic equation that should suffice to describe…
Invariant inference algorithms such as interpolation-based inference and IC3/PDR show that it is feasible, in practice, to find inductive invariants for many interesting systems, but non-trivial upper bounds on the computational complexity…
Under an hypothesis of non-degeneracy of the flux, we study the long-time behaviour of periodic scalar first-order conservation laws with stochastic forcing in any space dimension. For sub-cubic fluxes, we show the existence of an invariant…
An improved finite difference method with compact correction term is proposed to solve the Poisson equations. The compact correction term is developed by a coupled high-order compact and low-order classical finite difference formulations.…
An "exact" method for scalar one-dimensional hyperbolic conservation laws is presented. The approach is based on the evolution of shock particles, separated by local similarity solutions. The numerical solution is defined everywhere, and is…
The notion of lambda-symmetries, originally introduced by C. Muriel and J.L. Romero, is extended to the case of systems of first-order ODE's (and of dynamical systems in particular). It is shown that the existence of a symmetry of this type…
The solution of time-dependent hyperbolic conservation laws on cut cell meshes causes the small cell problem: standard schemes are not stable on the arbitrarily small cut cells if an explicit time stepping scheme is used and the time step…
