Abstract: The statistical description of the scalar conservation law of the form $h{o}_t=H(ho{)}_x$ with $H:mathbbRightarrowmathbbR$ a smooth convex function has been an object of interest when the initial profile $ho(cdot,0)$ is random. The special case when $H(ho)=frach{o}^{2}2$ (Burgers equation) has in particular received extensive interest in the past and is now understood for various random initial conditions. We solve in this paper a conjecture on the profile of the solution at any time $t>0$ for a general class of hamiltonians $H$ and show that it is a stationary piecewise-smooth Feller process. Along the way, we study the excursion process of the two-sided linear Brownian motion $W$ below any strictly convex function $phi$ with superlinear growth and derive a generalized Chernoff distribution of the random variable $ext{argmax}_{zinmathbbR}(W(z)-phi(z))$. Finally, when $ho(cdot,0)$ is a white noise derived from an abrupt L'evy process, we show that the shocks structure of the solution is a.s discrete at any fixed time $t>0$ under some mild assumptions on $H$.
