Shadow wave solutions for a scalar two-flux conservation law with Rankine-Hugoniot deficit

Abstract

The paper deals with scalar conservation laws having a flux discontinuity at $x=0$ without a weak solution that satisfies the classical Rankine--Hugoniot jump condition at $x=0$. We are using unbounded solutions in the form of shadow waves supported by the origin for solving that problem. The shadow waves are nets of piecewise constant functions approximating a shock wave with added a delta function and sometimes another unbounded part.
