Abstract

For scalar conservation laws in one space dimension with a flux function discontinuous inspace, there exist infinitely many classes of solutions which are L1 contractive.Each class is characterized by a connection (A,B) which determines the interface entropy. Forsolutions corresponding to a connection (A,B), there exists convergent numerical schemesbased on Godunov or Engquist−Osher schemes. The natural question is how to obtain schemes,corresponding to computationally less expensive monotone schemes like Lax−Friedrichs etc., usedwidely in applications. In this paper we completely answer this question for more general(A,B)stable monotone schemes using a novel construction of interface flux function. Then fromthe singular mapping technique of Temple and chain estimate of Adimurthi and Gowda, weprove the convergence of the schemes.
