The purpose of this paper is to explore, in a space of four-dimensions, the possible forms that second-order, bi-scalar-vector-tensor field equations derivable from a variational principle can assume. In order to restrict this enormous…

In this contribution, we present a novel approach for solving the obstacle problem for (linear) conservation laws. Usually, given a conservation law with an initial datum, the solution is uniquely determined. How to incorporate obstacles,…

We consider a general class of non-diffusive active scalar equations with constitutive laws obtained via an operator $\mathbf{T}$ that is singular of order $r_0\in[0,2]$. For $r_0\in(0,1]$ we prove well-posedness in Gevrey spaces $G^s$ with…

Let a 1-d system of hyperbolic conservation laws, with two unknowns, be endowed with a convex entropy. We consider the family of small $BV$ functions which are global solutions of this equation. For any small $BV$ initial data, such global…
