Hyperbolic conservation laws (35L65)

Abstract: The Second Law of Thermodynamics asserts that the physical entropy of an adiabatic system is an increasing function in time. In this paper we will study a more stringent version of this law, according to which the entropy should not only increase in time, but the rate of increase is optimal in absolute value among all possible evolutions. We will establish this property in the framework of non-linear scalar hyperbolic conservation law with strictly convex fluxes.
