The paper is concerned with a scalar conservation law with discontinuous gradient-dependent flux. Namely, the flux is described by two different functions $f(u)$ or $g(u)$, when the gradient $u_x$ of the solution is positive or negative,…

We prove convergence of positive solutions to \[ u_t = u\Delta u + u\int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^2, \qquad u\rvert_{\partial\Omega} =0, \qquad u(\cdot,0)=u_0 \] in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 1$, with smooth boundary in…

Consider the general scalar balance law $\partial_t u + \Div f(t, x,u) = F(t,x,u)$ in several space dimensions. The aim of this note is to estimate the dependence of its solutions from the flow $f$ and from the source $F$. To this aim, a…
