Young measure solutions are then understood as being generated by minimizing sequences for such functional much in the same way as in non-convex, vector variational problems. We establish an existence result for such generalized solutions based on an appropriate structural condition on the system. We finally discuss how the classic concept of a Young measure solution can be improved, and support our arguments by considering a scalar, single equation in dimension one.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-10-22T14:47:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "conservation laws", "young measure solution", "multidimensional systems", "young-measure solutions", "appropriate structural condition" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
