In this paper, a dual Orlicz–Brunn–Minkowski theory is presented. An Orlicz radial sum and dual Orlicz mixed volumes are introduced. The dual Orlicz–Minkowski inequality and the dual Orlicz–Brunn–Minkowski inequality are estab-lished. The variational formula for the volume with respect to the Orlicz radial sum is proved. The equivalence between the dual Orlicz–Minkowski inequality and the dual Orlicz–Brunn–Minkowski inequality is demonstrated. Orlicz intersection bodies are defined and the Orlicz–Busemann–Petty problem is posed.

It is well known that the spectral measure of eigenvalues of a rescaled square non-Hermitian random matrix with independent entries satises the circular law. We consider the product $T X$, where $T$ is a deterministic $N\times M$ matrix and $X$ is a random $M\times  N$ matrix with independent entries having zero mean and variance $(N \wedge M) ^{-1}$. We prove a general local circular law for the empirical spectral distribution (ESD) of $TX$ at any point $z$ away from the unit circle under the assumptions that$ N \sim M$, and the matrix entries $X_{ij} have suciently high moments. More precisely, if $z$ satisfes $| |z|
- 1| \ge \tau$  for arbitrarily small $\tau > 0, the ESD of $TX$ converges to $\tilde{X}_D (z) d A(z)$, where $\tilde{X}_D$ is a rotation-invariant function determined by the singular valuau of $T$ and $dA$ denotes the Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb{C}$. The local circular law is valid around $z$ up to scale $(N \wedge M) ^{-1/4+\epsilon}$ for any  $\epsilon >0$. Moreover, if $|z| >1$ or the matrix entries of $X$ have vanishing third moments, the local circular law is valid around $z$ up to scale $(N \wedge M) ^{-1/2+\epsilon}$ for any  $\epsilon >0$.

We consider a L 2-contraction (a L 2-type stability) of large viscous shock waves for the multi-dimensional scalar viscous conservation laws, up to a suitable shift by using the relative entropy methods. Quite different from the previous results, we find a new way to determine the shift function, which depends both on the time and space variables and solves a viscous Hamilton-Jacobi type equation with source terms. Moreover, we do not impose any conditions on the anti-derivative variables of the perturbation around the shock profile. More precisely, it is proved that if the initial perturbation around the viscous shock wave is suitably small in L 2-norm, then the L 2-contraction holds true for the viscous shock wave up to a suitable shift function. Note that BV-norm or the L-norm of the initial perturbation and the shock wave strength can be arbitrarily large. Furthermore, as the time t tends to infinity, the L 2-contraction holds
