    Abstract

    A rather complete study of the existence and qualitative behaviour of the boundaries of the support of solutions of the Cauchy problem for nonlinear first-order and second-order scalar conservation laws is presented. Among other properties, it is shown that, under appropriate assumptions, parabolic interfaces converge to hyperbolic ones in the vanishing viscosity limit.
