We propose finite-volume schemes for general continuity equations which preserve positivity and global bounds that arise from saturation effects in the mobility function. In the case of gradient flows, the schemes dissipate the free energy…

We study the "stiff pressure limit" of a nonlinear drift-diffusion equation, where the density is constrained to stay below the maximal value one. The challenge lies in the presence of a drift and the consequent lack of monotonicity in…
