We consider the Cauchy problem for a strictly hyperbolic, $n\times n$ system in one space dimension: $u_t+A(u)u_x=0$, assuming that the initial data has small total variation. We show that the solutions of the viscous approximations…

We show that the long time average of solutions of first order mean field game systems in finite horizon is governed by an ergodic system of mean field game type. The well-posedness of this later system and the uniqueness of the ergodic…
