Abstract
It is known that scalar hyperbolic conservation laws with source term and periodic initial value have a property of Poincare-Bendixson type, namely the solutions converge either to a constant state or to a periodic traveling wave, which is necessarily discontinuous. In this paper we show that generically (with respect to the L 1 topology) the solutions exhibit a behaviour of the former type. We also show that, while the rate of convergence to a constant state is exponential, the convergence to a traveling wave can be arbitrarily slow.
