Convergence of Discretization Procedures for Problems Whose Entropy Solutions are Uniquely Characterized by Additional Relations

Weak solutions of given problems are sometimes not necessarily unique. Relevant solutions are then picked out of the set of weak solutions by so-called entropy conditions. Connections between the original and the numerical entropy condition were often discussed in the particular case of scalar conservation laws, and also a general theory was presented in the literature for general scalar problems. The entropy conditions were realized by certain inequalities not generalizable to systems of equations in a trivial way. It is a concern of this article to extend the theory in such a way that inequalities can be replaced by general relations, and this not only in an abstract way but also realized by examples.
