Let ψx, t be a test function that has support in t > ɛ 0. We then define x + y φx, t, y, s = ψ, t + s ω ε0 t sω ε x y, where ε 0 and ε are small positive numbers. In this case φ t + φ s = ψ x + y, t + s ω ε0 t sω ε x y, t We are grateful to F. Gossler, O. Sete, and M. Rejske. Beware! Here ψ x+y t, t+s means the partial derivative of ψ with respect to the second variable, and this derivative is evaluated at x+y, t+s.

2 and 3 Introduce φ x + φ y = ψ x + y, t + s ω ε0 t sω ε x y. x K = ux, t vx, t ψ t + qu, vψ x and new variables with Jacobian equal 4 ξ = x + y, σ = t + s, η = x y, τ = t s.50a with inverse with Jacobian equal 4 x = ξ + η, t = σ + τ, y = ξ η, s = σ τ..50b We can write.49 as Kξ, η, σ, τω ε0 τω ε η4 dξdηdσdτ 0..50c Heuristically, we see that.50c converges to Kξ, 0, σ, 0 dξdσ = ux, t vx, t ψ t + qu, vψ x dt dx 0.50d as ε 0 and ε tend to zero. Write {, if σ + τ 0 and σ τ 0, χσ, τ =..50e 0, otherwise. To show rigorously that.50c converges to.50d, we consider Kξ, η, σ, τω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ Kξ, 0, σ, 0 dξdσ 4 = Kξ, η, σ, τχσ, τω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ Kξ, 0, σ, 0χσ, 0ω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ = Kξ, η, σ, τχσ, τ Kξ, 0, σ, 0χσ, 0 ω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ.50f = Kξ, η, σ, τ Kξ, 0, σ, 0 χσ, τω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ + Kξ, 0, σ, 0 χσ, τ χσ, 0 ω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ. 3 As in the previous equation, ψ x+y x, t+s to the first variable, and this derivative is evaluated at means the partial derivative of ψ with respect x+y, t+s.

3 Thus Kξ, η, σ, τω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ Kξ, 0, σ, 0 dξdσ Kξ, η, σ, τ Kξ, 0, σ, 0 χσ, τω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ + Kξ, 0, σ, 0 χσ, τ χσ, 0 ω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ = A ε,ε0 + B ε,ε0..50g The term A ε,ε0 can be estimated as follows: A ε,ε0 = Kξ, η, σ, τ Kξ, 0, σ, 0 χσ, τω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ Kξ, η, σ, τ Kξ, 0, σ, 0 ω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ uξ C + η, σ + τ uξ, σ + vξ + η, σ + τ vξ, σ ω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ. Here we used the Lipschitz continuity of q as well as the boundedness of the derivatives of the test function ψ. The constants are absorbed in the constant C. Furthermore, A ε,ε0 C ε 0 ε ω supp ψ 0 as ε, ε 0 0. suppω ε0 ω ε uξ + η, σ + τ uξ, σ + vξ + η, σ + τ vξ, σ dξdσdηdτ Here we used the following argument: For every Lebesgue point ξ, σ we have that uξ + η, σ + τ uξ, σ dηdτ suppω ε0 ω ε suppω ε0 ω ε Using 0 as ε, ε 0 0. χ supp ψ ess sup supp ψ uξ + η, σ + τ uξ, σ dηdτ suppω ε0 ωε as a dominating function, we infer that uξ + η, σ + τ uξ, σ dξdσdηdτ ε 0 ε supp ψ suppω ε0 ω ε 0 as ε, ε 0 0. The argument concerning the function v is similar. Thus we have proved that A ε,ε0 0 as ε, ε

4 Next we study the term B ε,ε0. We find B ε,ε0 = Kξ, 0, σ, 0 χσ, τ χσ, 0 ω ε0 τω ε η dξdηdσdτ ω ε Kξ, 0, σ, 0 χσ, τ χσ, 0 dτdξdσ 0 supp ψ ω ε sup 0, σ, 0 dξ 0 σ supp ψ,σ Kξ, χσ, τ χσ, 0 dτdσ ε 0 ω sup 0, σ, 0 dξ σ supp ψ,σ Kξ, 0 as ε h Thus we conclude that the following key estimate ux, t vx, t ψ t + qu, vψ x dt dx 0.50i holds for any two weak solutions u and v and any nonnegative test function ψ with support in t > ɛ.
