This work focuses on the numerical solution of hyperbolic conservations laws (possibly endowed with a source term) using the Active Flux method. This method is an extension of the finite volume method. Instead of solving a Riemann Problem,…

We consider nonlinear hyperbolic conservation laws, posed on a differential (n+1)-manifold with boundary referred to as a spacetime, and in which the "flux" is defined as a flux field of n-forms depending on a parameter (the unknown…

We prove the stability of entropy solutions of nonlinear conservation laws with respect to perturbations of the initial datum, the space-time dependent flux and the entropy inequalities. Such a general stability theorem is motivated by the…
We prove well-posedness of linear scalar conservation laws using only assumptions on the growth and the modulus of continuity of the velocity field, but not on its divergence. As an application, we obtain uniqueness of solutions in the…
In this paper we present a novel framework for obtaining high order numerical methods for 1-D scalar conservation laws with non-convex flux functions. When solving Riemann problems, the Oleinik entropy condition, [16], is satisfied when the…

It is well known, thanks to Lax-Wendroff theorem, that the local conservation of a numerical scheme for a conservative hyperbolic system is a simple and systematic way to guarantee that, if stable, a scheme will provide a sequence of…
We study first- and second-order linear transport equations, as well as ODE and SDE flows, with velocity fields satisfying a one-sided Lipschitz condition. Depending on the time direction, the flows are either compressive or expansive. In…
We consider flows of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) driven by path differentiable vector fields. Path differentiable functions constitute a proper subclass of Lipschitz functions which admit conservative gradients, a notion of…
Conservation laws in the form of elliptic and parabolic partial differential equations (PDEs) are fundamental to the modeling of many problems such as heat transfer and flow in porous media. Many of such PDEs are stochastic due to the…
For the Euler equations governing compressible isentropic fluid flow with a barotropic equation of state (where pressure is a function only of the density), local conservation laws in $n>1$ spatial dimensions are fully classified in two…
