Abstract

The Dominative pp-Laplacian is the operator defined for 2p<2\le p < \infty as follows: \begin{equation}\label{dominativep} \mathcal{L}_{p}u(x)=\frac{1}{p}\left(\lambda_{1}+\ldots+\lambda_{N-1}\right)+\frac{(p-1)}{p}\lambda_{N}, \end{equation} where we have ordered the eigenvalues of D2u(x)D^{2}u(x) as λ1λ2λN\lambda_{1}\le \lambda_{2}\ldots\le\lambda_{N}. The operator Lpu(x)\mathcal{L}_{p}u(x) was introduced by Brustand to give a natural explanation of the superposition principle for the pp-Laplace equation. In this paper, we present a discrete stochastic approximation to the unique viscosity solution of the Dirichlet problem for the Dominative pp-Laplace Equation.
