For two commuting Tonelli Hamiltonians, we recover the commutation of the Lax-Oleinik semi-groups, a result of Barles and Tourin ([BT01]), using a direct geometrical method (Stoke's theorem). We also obtain a "generalization" of a theorem…
We consider Tonelli Lagrangians on a graph, define weak KAM solutions, which happen to be the fixed points of the Lax-Oleinik semi-group, and identify their uniqueness set as the Aubry set, giving a representation formula. Our main result…
We establish the existence of smooth critical sub-solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation on compact manifolds for smooth convex Hamiltonians, that is in the context of weak KAM theory, under the assumption that the Aubry set is the union…

The Weak KAM theory was developed by Fathi in order to study the dynamics of convex Hamiltonian systems. It somehow makes a bridge between viscosity solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation and Mather invariant sets of Hamiltonian systems,…
We consider in this note the Hamilton-Jacobi equation H(x, dx u) = c, where c \geq 0, of the classical N-body problem in an Euclidean space E of dimension k \geq 2. The fixed points of the Lax-Oleinik semigroup are global viscosity…
We show that the Aubry sets, the Ma\~{n}\'{e} sets, Mather's barrier functions are the same for two commuting autonomous Tonelli Hamiltonians. We also show the quasi-linearity of $\alpha$-functions from the dynamical point of view and the…
We consider the Hamilton-Jacobi equation \[{H}(x,u,Du)=0,\quad x\in M, \] where $M$ is a connected, closed and smooth Riemannian manifold, ${H}(x,u,p)$ satisfies Tonelli conditions with respect to $p$ and certain decreasing condition with…
We consider Hamiltonians associated to optimal control problems for affine systems on the torus. They are not coercive and are possibly unbounded from below in the direction of the drift of the system. The main assumption is the strong…
Following the random approach of Mitake, Siconolfi,Tran and Yamada, we define a Lax--Oleinik formula adapted to evolutive weakly coupled systems of Hamilton--Jacobi equations. It is reminiscent of the corresponding scalar formula, with the…

We consider the following evolutionary Hamilton-Jacobi equation with initial condition: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \partial_tu(x,t)+H(x,u(x,t),\partial_xu(x,t))=0,\\ u(x,0)=\phi(x). \end{cases} \end{equation*} Under some assumptions on…
We study a class of weakly coupled Hamilton-Jacobi systems with a specific aim to perform a qualitative analysis in the spirit of weak KAM theory. Our main achievement is the definition of a family of related action functionals containing…
We develop two approximation schemes for solving the cell equation and the discounted cell equation using Aubry-Mather-Fathi theory. The Hamiltonian is supposed to be Tonelli, time-independent , and periodic in space. By Legendre transform…
For mechanical Hamiltonian systems on the torus, we study the dynamical properties of the generalized characteristics semiflows associated with certain Hamilton-Jacobi equations, and build the relation between the $\omega$-limit set of this…
We consider N-body problems with homogeneous potential $1/r^{2\kappa}$ where $\kappa\in(0,1)$, including the Newtonian case ($\kappa=1/2$). Given $R>0$ and $T>0$, we find a uniform upper bound for the minimal action of paths binding in time…
