Sharp \(L^1\) continuous dependence of solutions of bounded variation for hyperbolic systems of conservation laws (Q5940567)

The authors are interested in the continuous dependence of entropy solutions to systems of conservation laws, that is \[ \partial_t u+\partial_x f(u)= 0,\quad u(x,t)\in \mathbb{R}^N,\quad x\in\mathbb{R},\quad t\geq 0. \] They establish the sharp \(L^1\) continuous dependence of entropy solutions, which contains quadratic and cubic dissipation terms. Moreover, they show that for general systems, the result holds for solutions with small total variation. Furthermore, for a typical model arising in continuum physics, the authors extend their approach to solutions with large total variation.
