Use the unit-period circle , with total measure one. The free characteristic flow map gives
Translations in preserve its periodic measure. The Tonelli theorem and the integral triangle inequality yield
The Fubini's theorem therefore applies also to signed data, and the same translation gives
This holds for positive or negative time. The printed in this subpart is a domain typo: the spatial variable is periodic, so the correct space is . For example, the smooth initial value gives the constant density , whose periodic extension is not integrable on the real line.
