Uniqueness and weak stability for multi-dimensional transport equations with one-sided Lipschitz coefficient

Francois Bouchut, Francois James, Simona Mancini (2005)

Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze

The Cauchy problem for a multidimensional linear transport equation with discontinuous coefficient is investigated. Provided the coefficient satisfies a one-sided Lipschitz condition, existence, uniqueness and weak stability of solutions are obtained for either the conservative backward problem or the advective forward problem by duality. Specific uniqueness criteria are introduced for the backward conservation equation since weak solutions are not unique. A main point is the introduction of a generalized...
