Two topics on nonlinear hyperbolic systems are considered. First, it is established that solutions of the Cauchy problem for multidimensional scalar conservation laws with vanishing nonlinear diffusion and dispersion terms are bounded and converge to the classical entropy solution. The techniques used rely on the method of proof that was first successful in proving convergence of finite difference schemes. Second, the Riemann problem is solved for one-dimensional systems of conservation laws with Lipschitz continuous flux-functions. The solutions satisfy a suitable generalization of Lax shock admissibility inequalities, and turn out to be stable by regularization of the flux. A generalized calculus of Lipshitz continuous functions is used. Several new difficulties that arise with these systems having Lipschitz continuous flux are pointed out. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0944.00055].
