In this paper, we consider the following Hamilton-Jacobi equation with initial condition: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \partial_tu(x,t)+H(x,t,u(x,t),\partial_xu(x,t))=0, u(x,0)=\phi(x). \end{cases} \end{equation*} Under some assumptions…

This paper is concerned with the study of a model case of first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations posed on a "junction", that is to say the union of a finite number of half-lines with a unique common point. The main result is a comparison…

We study the Hamilton-Jacobi equations $H(x,Du,u)=0$ in $M$ and $\partial u/\partial t +H(x,D_xu,u)=0$ in $M\times(0,\infty)$, where the Hamiltonian $H=H(x,p,u)$ depends Lipschitz continuously on the variable $u$. In the framework of the…

We present a simple and easy to implement method for the numerical solution of a rather general class of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations. In many cases, the considered problems have only a viscosity solution, to which, fortunately,…
