Monotone (A,B) entropy stable numerical scheme for Scalar Conservation Laws with discontinuous flux

2014 
For scalar conservation laws in one space dimension with a flux function discontinuous in space, there exist infinitely many classes of solutions which are L 1 contractive. Each class is character- ized by a connection (A,B) which determines the interface entropy. For solutions corresponding to a connection (A,B), there exists convergent numerical schemes based on Godunov or EngquistOsher schemes. The natural question is how to obtain schemes, corresponding to computationally less expen- sive monotone schemes like LaxFriedrichs etc., used widely 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 from the singular mapping technique of Temple and chain estimate of Adimurthi and Gowda, we prove the convergence of the schemes.
