Given a $C^2$ family of vector fields $X_1,...,X_m$ which induces a continuous Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance, we show that any absolute minimizer of a supremal functional defined by a $C^2$ quasiconvex Hamiltonian $f(x, z, p)$, allowing…

We study the Dirichlet problem of the following discrete infinity Laplace equation on a subgraph with finite width $$\Delta_{\infty} u(x) = \inf_{y \sim x}u(y)+\sup_{y \sim x}u(y)-2u(x) = f(x).$$ We say that a subgraph has finite width if…
