In this paper we study an approximation scheme for an Hamilton-Jacobi equation of Eikonal type defined on a network. We introduce an appropriate notion of viscosity solution for this class of equations (see \cite{sc}) and we prove that an…

We prove first-order convergence of semi-discrete monotone finite difference schemes for Hamilton--Jacobi equations on the Wasserstein space over a finite graph. A central challenge is the boundary degeneracy of the Wasserstein simplex,…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior of solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift term in an open subset of two-dimensional Euclidean space. When the drift is given by $\varepsilon^{-1} (H_{x_2}, -H_{x_1})$ of a Hamiltonian…

This paper deals with junction conditions for Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations for finite horizon control problems on multi-domains. We consider two different cases where the final cost is continuous or lower semi-continuous. In the…

We present qualitative and quantitative homogenization results for pathwise Hamilton-Jacobi equations with "rough" multiplicative driving signals. When there is only one such signal and the Hamiltonian is convex, we show that the equation,…
