The solution of the Cauchy problem for a hyperbolic partial differential equation leads to a linear combination of operators Tt of the formFor example, the solution of the initial value problemis given by u(x, t) = Ttf(x) wherePeral proved in [11] that Tt is bounded from LP(Rn) to LP(Rn) if and only ifFrom the homogeneity, the operator norm satisfies ‖Tt‖ ≦ Ct for all t > 0.

In this paper we review many aspects of the well-posedness theory for the Cauchy problem for the continuity and transport equations and for the ordinary differential equation (ODE). In this framework, we deal with velocity fields that are not smooth, but enjoy suitable ‘weak differentiability’ assumptions. We first explore the connection between the partial differential equation (PDE) and the ODE in a very general non-smooth setting. Then we address the renormalization property for the PDE and prove that such a property holds for Sobolev velocity fields and for bounded variation velocity fields. Finally, we present an approach to the ODE theory based on quantitative estimates.
