Numerical analysis

if a conservative difference scheme for a conservation law converges, its limit is a weak solution of that conservation law.

In numerical analysis, Lax-Wendroff theorem refers to if a conservative difference scheme for a conservation law converges, its limit is a weak solution of that conservation law. This meaning comes from Lax (1960) in Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics.[1]
