✦ Synopsis

The paper presents a well-posedness theory for the initial value problem for a general system of hyperbolic conservation laws. We will start with the refinement of Glimm's existence theory and discuss the principle of nonlinear superposition through wave tracing. Our main goal is to introduce a nonlinear functional for two solutions with the property that it is equivalent to the L 1 (x) distance between the two solutions and is time-decreasing. Moreover, the functional is constructed explicitly in terms of the wave patterns of the solutions through the nonlinear superposition. It consists of a linear term measuring the L 1 (x) distance, a quadratic term measuring the coupling of waves and distance, and a generalized entropy functional.

We develop a well-posedness theory for solutions in L 1 to the Cauchy problem of general degenerate parabolic-hyperbolic equations with non-isotropic nonlinearity. A new notion of entropy and kinetic solutions and a corresponding kinetic formulation are developed which extends the hyperbolic case. T
