Abstract:

Let $\Omega\subset *R*^2$ be an open set and let $f\in C^2 (*R*)$ with $f''>0$. In this note we prove that entropy solutions of $D_t u + D_x f(u) =0$ belong to $SBV_{loc} (\Omega)$. As a corollary we prove the same property for gradients of viscosity solutions of planar Hamilton--Jacobi PDEs with uniformly convex hamiltonians.
