We show the stability of the sticky particle forward flow (x, s, t) ↦ {phi}(x, s, Pt, ut) w.r.t. perturbations of the initial mass distribution P0 and velocity function u0. Then, we deduce the stability of related scalar conservation laws and pressureless gas system.

Keywords: stochastic process; sticky particles model; stability; forward flow; scalar conservation law; pressureless gas system.
