3 Introduction Consider the following Cauchy problem { ut + ϕ(u) x = 0 in R (0, T ] =: Q T u(x, 0) = u 0 in R {0}. (1) where u 0 is a positive Radon measure.
4 Introduction Consider the following Cauchy problem { ut + ϕ(u) x = 0 in R (0, T ] =: Q T u(x, 0) = u 0 in R {0}. (1) where u 0 is a positive Radon measure. T.-P. Liu & M. Pierre, J. Differential Equations (1984) In this paper authors gave a formulation in which the solution becomes L for t > 0, they consider a class of super linear fluxes (in particular fluxes ϕ(u) = u p, p > 1), proving uniqueness and existence.
5 Linear case ϕ(u) = Cu.
6 Linear case ϕ(u) = Cu. The solution is given in a standard way by T Ct (u 0 ). Where for every Radon measure µ, we define in a standard way the translation by T h (µ), ρ R := µ, ρ h R (2) for every ρ C c (R), where ρ h (x) := ρ(x + h) (x R). In this case it is clear that if there is a singular part in the initial data this does not disappear in the solution.
7 Let us consider the following toy case ϕ(u) = 1 1 (1+u), p > 0 p (concave and bounded flux), u 0 = δ 0. Idea: approximate initial data with initial data that are functions { 0 x 1 u 0n = 2n n x < 1 2n.

9 The sequence of solutions converges to a radon measure such that the singular part persists until time t = 1.
10 The sequence of solutions converges to a radon measure such that the singular part persists until time t = 1. More precisely, fixed T > 1, we have u s (t) = max{1 t, 0}δ 0.

16 Similarly, we can study these family of fluxes that are unbounded (sub linear) and concave, ϕ(u) = (1 + u) p 1, 0 < p < 1. Let us consider again initial data u 0 = δ 0. In this case it easy to prove that t n (intersection between shock and rarefaction wave) converges to 0. This suggests that the solution regularizes immediately.

Suppose that the initial data is a positive radon measure defined in R, the solution is sought in the space L (0, T ; M + (R)), a subspace of the 2-d radon measure in which there is a good disintegration respect to the time variable.
23 Obviously in the hyperbolic case it is necessary to consider an entropy formulation. Let us assume the following hypothesis for the flux ϕ C([0, )), ϕ(0) = 0, ϕ L (0, ) ; (H 1 ) ϕ(u) there exists lim =: C ϕ. u u

Let us assume the following hypothesis for the flux ϕ C([0, )), ϕ(0) = 0, ϕ L (0, ) ; (H 1 ) ϕ(u) there exists lim =: C ϕ. u u In particular this assures that the velocity of the characteristics is a priori bounded. The singular part moves along characteristics of the type a + C ϕ t.

The singular part moves along characteristics of the type a + C ϕ t. We consider couples (E, F ) of entropy flux entropy such that: E is convex, F = ϕ E, that satisfy { E, F L (0, ), F = E ϕ in (0, ), there exist lim u E(u) u =: C E, lim u F (u) u =: C F. (In particular Kružkov s entropies are admissible if ϕ satisfies H 1 ).
26 A measure u L (0, T ; M + (R)) is a weak solution of the Cauchy problem (1) if for any ζ C 1 ([0, T ]; C 1 c (R)), ζ(, T ) = 0 in R we have Ω T [ ur ζ t + ϕ(u r )ζ x ] dxdt + T 0 u s(, t), ζ t (, t) R dt + C ϕ T 0 u s(, t), ζ x (, t) R dt = u 0, ζ(, 0) R.

A weak solution of problem (1) is called entropy solution, if for any ζ 0 as above and for any admissible couple (E, F ) we have Ω T [E(u r )ζ t + F (u r )ζ x ] dxdt + C E T 0 u s(, t), ζ t (, t) R dt + +C F T 0 u s(, t), ζ x (, t) R dt R E(u 0r )ζ(x, 0) dx C E u 0s, ζ(, 0) R.
28 Theorem (Bertsch, Smarrazzo, T., Tesei, 2016) Let us assume (H 1 ) problem (1) admits a weak solution. Moreover, if there are not intervals in which the flux ϕ is affine, the solution is also an entropy solution.
29 Theorem (Bertsch, Smarrazzo, T., Tesei, 2016) Let us assume (H 1 ) problem (1) admits a weak solution. Moreover, if there are not intervals in which the flux ϕ is affine, the solution is also an entropy solution. The solution is obtained by using an approximation of the initial data with u 0n L 1 (R) L (R), such that the L 1 is uniformly bounded.

The solution is obtained by using an approximation of the initial data with u 0n L 1 (R) L (R), such that the L 1 is uniformly bounded. If the flux function ϕ admits affine intervals, it is possible to prove that the solution satisfied a proper measure valued entropy formulation.
31 Remark: we can always assume to be in the case C ϕ = 0. In fact it is enough to consider function ϕ(z) = ϕ(z) C ϕ z, observing that if u is a weak solution (entropy solution) of the problem with flux ϕ then ũ(, t) := T Cϕtu(, t) is a weak solution (entropy solution) of the problem with ϕ.

44 In order to prove uniqueness we have to overcome the problem of the existence of the trace.
45 In order to prove uniqueness we have to overcome the problem of the existence of the trace. Suppose that at initial time there is a singular part in x 0 of the type Aδ x0 and that the singular part (in x 0 ) persists until time t. Regarding the condition for the trace of u r near x 0 it is useful to adapt the methods introduced by Otto of the boundary entropy entropy flux pair.

Regarding the condition for the trace of u r near x 0 it is useful to adapt the methods introduced by Otto of the boundary entropy entropy flux pair. Considering the boundary condition + along the point x 0, we have the following integral conditions ess lim x x 0 t 0 t sgn (u r (x, t) k)(ϕ(u i r (x, t) ϕ(k))α(t) dt 0 ess lim x x for every k 0, for every α C([0, t]), α 0. sgn (u r (x, t) k)(ϕ(u i r (x, t) ϕ(k))α(t) dt 0
47 Moreover using weak formulation, we must define the evolution of the delta as A(t)δ x0, where t A(t) = A lim ϕ(u(x 0 + δ, t)) ϕ(u(x 0 δ, t)) dt for (0, t]. δ 0 0 A(t) = 0.
48 Moreover using weak formulation, we must define the evolution of the delta as A(t)δ x0, where t A(t) = A lim ϕ(u(x 0 + δ, t)) ϕ(u(x 0 δ, t)) dt for (0, t]. δ 0 0 A(t) = 0. Using previous boundary integral condition it is easy to check that A(t) is nonincreasing.
