Fractional spaces and conservation laws

چکیده
In 1994, Lions, Perthame and Tadmor conjectured the maximal smoothing effect for multidimensional scalar conservation laws in Sobolev spaces. For strictly smooth convex flux and the one-dimensional case we detail the proof of this conjecture in the framework of Sobolev fractional spaces W s,1, and in fractional BV spaces: BV s. The BV s smoothing effect is more precise and optimal. It implies the optimal Sobolev smoothing effect in W s,1 and also in W s,p with the optimal p = 1/s. Moreover, the proof expounded does not use the Lax-Oleinik formula but a generalized one-sided Oleinik condition.

Fractional BV spaces and first applications to scalar conservation laws
The aim of this paper is to obtain new fine properties of entropy solutions of nonlinear scalar conservation laws. For this purpose, we study some “fractional BV spaces” denoted BV s, for 0 < s ≤ 1, introduced by Love and Young in 1937. The BV s(R) spaces are very closed to the critical Sobolev space W s,1/s(R). We investigate these spaces in relation with one-dimensional scalar conservation la...
متن کاملFractional conservation laws in optimal control theory
Using the recent formulation of Noether’s theorem for the problems of the calculus of variations with fractional derivatives, the Lagrange multiplier technique, and the fractional Euler-Lagrange equations, we prove a Noetherlike theorem to the more general context of the fractional optimal control. As a corollary, it follows that in the fractional case the autonomous Hamiltonian does not define...
متن کاملThe Discontinuous Galerkin Method for Fractal Conservation Laws
We propose, analyze, and demonstrate a discontinuous Galerkin method for fractional conservation laws. Various stability estimates are established along with error estimates for regular solutions of linear equations. Moreover, in the nonlinear case and when piecewise constant elements are utilized, we prove a rate of convergence toward the unique entropy solution. We present numerical results f...
متن کاملFractional Rate of Convergence for Viscous Approximation to Nonconvex Conservation Laws
This paper considers the viscous approximations to conservation laws with nonconvex flux function. It is shown that if the entropy solutions are piecewise smooth, then the rate of L1convergence is a fractional number in (0.5, 1]. This is in contrast to the corresponding result for the convex conservation laws. Numerical experiments indicate that the theoretical prediction for the convergence ra...
متن کاملLocal Conservation Laws of Second-Order Evolution Equations
Generalizing results by Bryant and Griffiths [Duke Math. J., 1995, V.78, 531–676], we completely describe local conservation laws of second-order (1 + 1)-dimensional evolution equations up to contact equivalence. The possible dimensions of spaces of conservation laws prove to be 0, 1, 2 and infinity. The canonical forms of equations with respect to contact equivalence are found for all nonzero ...
