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…
We investigate $L^2$-contraction and time-asymptotic stability of large shock for scalar viscous conservation laws with polynomial flux. For the strictly convex flux $f(u)=u^p $ with $2\leq p \leq 4$, we can prove $L^2$-contraction and…
