Differential games and Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the Heisenberg group
Abstract
The purpose of this work is twofold. First we study the solutions of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation of the form , where represents the horizontal gradient of a function defined on the Heisenberg group . Motivated by the recent paper by Liu, Manfredi and Zhou (\cite{LiMaZh2016}), we prove a Lipschitz continuity preserving property for with respect to the Kor\'anyi homogeneous distances in . Secondly, we are keenly interested in introducing the game theory in , taking into account its Sub-Riemannian structure: inspired by ideas in the paper of Evans and Souganidis (see \cite{EvSo1984}), in the paper of and Balogh, Calogero and Pini \cite{BaCaPi2014}, we prove -Lipschitz regularity results for the lower and the upper value functions of a zero game with horizontal curves as its trajectories, and we study the Hamilton-Jacobi-Isaacs equations associated to such zero game. As a consequence, we also provide a representation of the viscosity solution of the initial Hamilton-Jacobi equation.
