Abstract

We consider scalar balance laws with a dissipative source term. The flux function may be discontinuous with respect to both the space variable x and the unknown quantity u. We formulate the definition of entropy weak solutions and provide existence and uniqueness to the considered problem. The problem is formulated in the framework of multi-valued mappings. The notion of entropy measure-valued solutions is used to prove the so-called contraction principle and comparison principle.
