Review text

We introduce a new method to obtain pointwise error estimates for vanishing viscosity and finite difference approximations of scalar conservation laws with piecewise smooth solutions. This method can deal with finitely many shocks with possible collisions. The key ingredient in our approach is an interpolation inequality between the \(L^1\) and \(Lip^+\)-bounds, which enables us to convert a global result into a (non-optimal) local estimate. A bootstrap argument yields optimal pointwise error bounds for both the vanishing viscosity and finite difference approximations. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0911.00029].
