Abstract
We show the continuity of the flow map for quasilinear symmetric hyperbolic systems with general right-hand sides in different functional setting, including weighted Sobolev spaces Hs δ. An essential tool to achieve the continuity of the flow map is a new type of energy estimate, which we call a low regularity energy estimate. We then apply these results to the Euler-Poisson system which describes various systems of physical interest.
