In this article, we propose a novel front tracking scheme for scalar conservation laws with spatially heterogeneous, uniformly convex flux and prove that approximations converge to the unique entropy solution. The main tools are Dafermos'…

The notion of Kruzhkov entropy solution was extended by the first author in 2007 to conservation laws with a fractional laplacian diffusion term; this notion led to well-posedness for the Cauchy problem in the $L^\infty$-framework. In the…

In the case of scalar conservation laws $$ u_{t} + f(u)_{x}~=~0,\qquad t\geq 0, x\in\mathbb{R}, $$ with uniformly strictly convex flux $f$, quantitative compactness estimates - in terms of Kolmogorov entropy in ${\bf L}^{1}_{loc}$ - were…
We discuss the minimal integrability needed for the initial data, in order that the Cauchy problem for a multi-dimensional conservation law admit an entropy solution. In particular we allow unbounded initial data. We investigate also the…

We consider well-balanced schemes for the following 1D scalar conservation law with source term: d_t u + d_x f(u) + z'(x) b(u) = 0. More precisely, we are interested in the numerical approximation of the initial boundary value problem for…
For hyperbolic systems of conservation laws, uniqueness of solutions is still largely open. We aim to expand the theory of uniqueness for systems of conservation laws. One difficulty is that many systems have only one entropy. This…
We consider the scalar conservation law in one space dimension with a genuinely nonlinear flux. We assume that an appropriate velocity function depending on the entropy solution of the conservation law is given for the comprising particles,…
We consider the follow-the-leader particle approximation scheme for a $1d$ scalar conservation law with nonnegative $L^\infty_c$ initial datum and with a $C^1$ concave flux, which is known to provide convergence towards the entropy solution…
We consider a scalar conservation law with source in a bounded open interval $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb R$. The equation arises from the macroscopic evolution of an interacting particle system. The source term models an external effort driving…
We prove that the unique entropy solution to a scalar nonlinear conservation law with strictly monotone velocity and nonnegative initial condition can be rigorously obtained as the large particle limit of a microscopic follow-the-leader…
This paper is concerned with entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws of the form $\partial_{t}u+\diver f=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^d\times(0,\infty)$. The flux $f=f(x,u)$ depends explicitly on the spatial variable $x$. Using an extension of…
