We consider a hyperbolic system of conservation laws u_t + f(u)_x = 0 and u(0,\cdot) = u_0, where each characteristic field is either linearly degenerate or genuinely nonlinear. Under the assumption of coinciding shock and rarefaction…
We study the following class of scalar hyperbolic conservation laws with discontinuous fluxes: \partial_t\rho+\partial_xF(x,\rho)=0. The main feature of such a conservation law is the discontinuity of the flux function in the space variable…

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…
We consider the semilinear parabolic equation $u_t=u_{xx}+f(u)$ on the real line, where $f$ is a locally Lipschitz function on $\mathbb{R}.$ We prove that if a solution $u$ of this equation is bounded and its initial value $u(x,0)$ has…
We consider the Cauchy problem for a $n\times n$ strictly hyperbolic system of balance laws $$ \{{array}{c} u_t+f(u)_x=g(x,u), x \in \mathbb{R}, t>0 u(0,.)=u_o \in L^1 \cap BV(\mathbb{R}; \mathbb{R}^n), | \lambda_i(u)| \geq c > 0 {for all}…

We study the stability of Riemann solutions to pressureless Euler equations with Coulomb-like friction under the nonlinear approximation of flux functions with one parameter. The approximated system can be seen as the generalized Chaplygin…
Solutions to a class of conservation laws with discontinuous flux are constructed relying on the Crandall-Liggett theory of nonlinear contractive semigroups~\cite{CL}. In particular, the paper studies the existence of backward Euler…
Hamiltonian perturbations of the simplest hyperbolic equation $u_t + a(u) u_x=0$ are studied. We argue that the behaviour of solutions to the perturbed equation near the point of gradient catastrophe of the unperturbed one should be…
We study in what sense one can determine the function $k=k(x)$ in the scalar hyperbolic conservation law $u_t+(k(x)f(u))_x=0$ by observing the solution $u(t,\dott)$ of the Cauchy problem with initial data $u|_{t=0}=u_o$.
We prove H\"older regularity of any continuous solution $u$ to a $1$-D scalar balance law $u_t + [f(u)]_x = g$, when the source term $g$ is bounded and the flux $f$ is nonlinear of order $\ell \in \mathbb{N}$ with $\ell \ge 2$. For example,…

We discuss the existence and uniqueness of discontinuous solutions to adjoint problems associated with nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws. By generalizing the Haar method for Glimm-type approximations to hyperbolic systems,…
In this work we consider companion conservation laws to general systems of conservation laws. We investigate sufficient regularity for weak solutions to satisfy companion laws, assuming the fluxes to be $C^{1,\gamma}$, $0<\gamma<1$,…
