We propose a new globally convergent numerical method to solve Hamilton-Jacobi equations in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d \geq 1$. This method is named as the Carleman convexification method. By Carleman convexification, we mean that we use a Carleman…

For the Newtonian N-body problem, we study the Jacobi-Maupertuis metric of the nonnegative energy levels. We show that the geodesic rays are expansive, that is to say, all the distances between the bodies must be divergent functions. More…
