Description

For scalar conservation laws, it is an open question to obtain the optimal regularity for entropy
solutions arising from bounded initial data. For uniformly convex flux in 1-D, solution belongs
to BVloc in any positive time even for L

∞ data. By explicit examples, we show [1] that BV

regularizing is not true for any C
2
flux in multi-D. We are also able to characterize the 1-D C
2

fluxes based on BV-regularizing.
In the second part of the talk, we will discuss about jump sets of entropy solutions for hyperbolic
conservation laws. With explicit construction of entropy solution, we prove [2] that jump sets of
scalar conservation laws may not be closed in general, in fact they are dense. This solves a question
proposed by [Silvestre, Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 2019]. Then we extend the result for hyperbolic
system of conservation laws via a different construction.
