In this note we present a unifying approach for two classes of first order partial differential equations: we introduce the notion of Lagrangian representation in the settings of continuity equation and scalar conservation laws. This yields, on the one hand, the uniqueness of weak solutions to transport equation driven by a two dimensional BV nearly incompressible vector field. On the other hand, it is proved that the entropy dissipation measure for scalar conservation laws in one space dimension is concentrated on countably many Lipschitz curves.

AbstractWe study the Bhatnagar–Gross–Krook (BGK) approximation to first-order scalar conservation laws with a flux which is discontinuous in the space variable. We show that the Cauchy problem for the BGK approximation is well posed and that, as the relaxation parameter tends to 0, it converges to the (entropy) solution of the limit problem.

In this paper we give a criterion to discriminate the entropy solution to quasi-linear equations of first order among weak solutions. This uniqueness statement is a generalization of Oleinik's criterion, which makes reference to the measure of the increasing character of weak solutions. The link between Oleinik's criterion and the entropy condition due to Kruzhkov is also clarified. An application of this analysis to the convergence of the particle method for conservation laws is also given by using the Filippov characteristics.


A complete class of first order conservation laws for two dimensional deformations in general anisotropic elastic materials is derived. The derivations are based on Stroh’s formalism for anisotropic elasticity. The general procedure proposed by P. J. Olver for the construction of conservation integrals is followed. It is shown that the conservation laws are intimately connected with Cauchy’s theorem for complex analytic functions. Real-form conservation laws that are valid for degenerate or non-degenerate materials are given.
