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 establish new results for path-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi equations with nonlinear monotone, and coercive operators on Hilbert space, which were initially studied in Bayraktar and Keller [J. Funct. Anal., 275 (8) (2018), pp. 2096-2161].…

The Hamilton-Jacobi equation on metric spaces has been studied by several authors; following the approach of Gangbo and Swiech, we show that the final value problem for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation has a unique solution even if we add a…
