The control of relaxation-type systems of ordinary differential equations is investigated using the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation. First, we recast the model as a singularly perturbed dynamics which we embed in a family of controlled…

The Hamilton Jacobi Bellman Equation (HJB) provides the globally optimal solution to large classes of control problems. Unfortunately, this generality comes at a price, the calculation of such solutions is typically intractible for systems…

We study the solution theory of the whole-space static (elliptic) Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation in spectral Barron spaces. We prove that under the assumption that the coefficients involved are spectral Barron functions and the…

We argue that Hamilton-Jacobi equations provide a convenient and intuitive approach for studying the large-scale behavior of mean-field disordered systems. This point of view is illustrated on the problem of inference of a rank-one matrix.…

In this paper, training a neural network is identified, exactly, as a search through Hamilton--Jacobi initial-value problems: each gradient step selects the initial data of a viscous Hamilton--Jacobi equation whose Hopf--Cole propagator…

We prove stochastic homogenization for a class of non-convex and non-coercive first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations in a finite-range-dependence environment for Hamiltonians that can be expressed by a max-min formula. Exploiting the…

In this paper we study a first extension of the theory of mild solutions for HJB equations in Hilbert spaces to the case when the domain is not the whole space. More precisely, we consider a half-space as domain, and a semilinear…

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…
