Abstract We derive and study a Lax–Friedrichs-type finite volume method for a large class of nonlocal continuity equations in multiple dimensions. We prove that the method converges weakly to the measure-valued solution and converges strongly if the initial data is of bounded variation. Several numerical examples for the kinetic Kuramoto equation are provided, demonstrating that the method works well for both regular and singular data.

We consider a variational kinetic formulation for weak, entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws due to Brenier. The solutions in this formulation are represented by a kinetic density function Y that solves a differential inclusion ∂tY ∈ -A(Y) = -∂vf ⋅ ∇xY -∂ IK(Y), where IK is the indicator function of a closed, convex cone K. Under a certain "non-degeneracy" condition we determine a maximal monotone extension of A and use it to prove the existence of strong and weak solutions of the differential inclusion for a general, possibly degenerate, flux ∂vf(v). Furthermore, we discuss several properties of strong solutions.
