Estimates of the Domain of Dependence for Scalar Conservation Laws
Abstract
We consider the Cauchy problem for a multidimensional scalar conservation law and construct an outer estimate for the domain of dependence of its Kruzkov solution. The estimate can be represented as the controllability set of a specific differential inclusion. In addition, reachable sets of this inclusion provide outer estimates for the support of the wave profiles. Both results follow from a modified version of the classical Kruzkov uniqueness theorem, which we also present in the paper. Finally, the results are applied to a control problem consisting in steering a distributed quantity to a given set.
