We study the contraction properties (up to shift) for admissible Rankine-Hugoniot discontinuities of $n\times n$ systems of conservation laws endowed with a convex entropy. We first generalize the criterion developed in [47], using the…

We study the $L^2$-type contraction property of large perturbations around shock waves of scalar viscous conservation laws with strictly convex fluxes in one space dimension. The contraction holds up to a shift, and it is measured by a…

We prove that the entropy solution to a scalar conservation law posed on the real line with a flux that is discontinuous at one point (in the space variable) coincides with the derivative of the solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) equation…

Under an hypothesis of non-degeneracy of the flux, we study the long-time behaviour of periodic scalar first-order conservation laws with stochastic forcing in any space dimension. For sub-cubic fluxes, we show the existence of an invariant…
