Abstract

We present a semi-Lagrangian scheme for the approximation of a class of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations on networks. The scheme is explicit and stable under some technical conditions. We prove a convergence theorem and some error estimates. Additionally, the theoretical results are validated by numerical tests. Finally, we apply the scheme to simulate traffic flows modeling problems.
