In this article, we develop what are, to the best of our knowledge, the first negative results for scalar conservation laws. We begin with explicit examples where bounded initial data leads to $L^{\infty}$ blow-up despite flux regularity.…

We consider the Cauchy problem for the quasi-linear scalar conservation law \[u_t+\mathcal{F}(u)_t+u_x=0,\] where $\mathcal{F}$ is a specific hysteresis operator. Hysteresis models a rate-independent memory relationship between the input…
In this paper we consider the Cauchy problem for the semilinear damped wave equation $u_{tt}-\Delta u + u_t = h(u);\qquad u(0;x) = f(x); \quad u_t(0;x) = g(x);$ where $h(s) = |s|^{1+2/n}\mu(|s|)$. Here n is the space dimension and $\mu$ is…

Consider the Cauchy problem for the 3-d linear wave equation $\square_{1+3}U=0$ with radial initial data $U(0,x)=\Phi(x)=\phi(|x|)$, $U_t(0,x)=\Psi(x)=\psi(|x|)$. A standard result gives that $U$ belongs to $C([0,T];H^s(\mathbb{R}^3))$…
