 Averaged initial trace of an entropy solution

For a bounded entropy solution with its initial entropy inequalities, the displayed limit holds on every compact spatial set. Test a constant-level entropy with $(1-t/\delta {)}_{+}\rho (x)$. The flux remainder is $O(\delta )$, giving a bound by $\int \rho |u_0-k|$. A finite smooth partition and constant levels approximate the initial function in local $L^1$; the triangle inequality makes the limsup arbitrarily small. This averaged trace suffices for one-sided time mollifiers supported in $[\delta ,2\delta ]$.
