This book are notes prepared for the PhD courses that the author has been teaching during the last 10 years. The material available in the already existing literature (papers and essays) has been collected in this unique text, presenting the results with all the details for the reader’s convenience, fixing a unified notation, and providing a consistent framework for the subject. These notes cover many of the arguments that usually can be found in high level essays, where the proofs are simply sketched, and in papers, which are not easily available and not always self-contained.
This book is intended for1. PhD students in Mathematics, Physics and Mechanical Engineering in order to learn the basic features of nonlinear scalar equations,2. researchers interested in nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs in order to learn the details behind some known and deep results on nonlinear scalar equations,3. teachers of courses on nonlinear PDEs.The readers are expected to know the basic measure theory and Sobolev spaces.
