Characteristics of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation can be seen as action minimizing trajectories of fluid particles. For nonsmooth "viscosity" solutions, which give rise to discontinuous velocity fields, this description is usually pursued only…

In this paper, we consider first order Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) equations posed on a ``junction'', that is to say the union of a finite number of half-lines with a unique common point. For this continuous HJ problem, we propose a finite…

This paper is concerned with the qualitative properties of viscocity solutions to a class of Hamilton-Jacobi equations (HJEs) in Banach spaces. Specifically, based on the concept of $\beta$-derivative \cite{DGZ93b} we establish the…

We study the nonlinear inhomogeneous wave equation in one space dimension: $v_{tt} - T(v,x)_{xx} = 0$. By constructing some "decoupled" Riccati type equations for smooth solutions, we provide a singularity formation result without…

Suppose that $H(x,u,p)$ is strictly decreasing in $u$ and satisfies Tonelli conditions in $p$. We show that each viscosity solution of $H(x,u,u_x)=0$ can be reached by many viscosity solutions of $$ w_t+H(x,w,w_x)=0, $$ in a finite time.

In this paper, we derive the lower bounds for the gradients of viscosity solutions to the Hamilton--Jacobi equation, where the convex Hamiltonian depends on the unknown function. We obtain gradient estimates using two different methods.…

We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Dirichlet problem for Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift terms, where the drift terms are given by the Hamiltonian vector fields of Hamiltonian $H$. This is an attempt to…

It is well-known that solutions to the basic problem in the calculus of variations may fail to be Lipschitz continuous when the Lagrangian depends on t. Similarly, for viscosity solutions to time-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi equations one…

We prove a representation formula of Hopf-Lax type for the solution of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation involving Caputo time-fractional derivative. Equations of these type are associated with optimal control problems where the controlled…

For non convex Hamiltonians, the viscosity solution and the more geometric minimax solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation do not coincide in general. They are nevertheless related: we show that iterating the minimax procedure during…

We address the problem of existence and uniqueness of solutions $(c,u(\cdot))$ to ergodic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations of the form $H(x,\nabla u(x), D^{2}u(x)) = c$ in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^{m}$ with unbounded and merely…
