We study the stochastic homogenization for a Cauchy problem for a first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equation whose operator is not coercive w.r.t. the gradient variable. We look at Hamiltonians like $H(x,\sigma(x)p,\omega)$ where $\sigma(x)$ is a…

We establish the equivalence between the notions of weak and viscosity solutions for non-homogeneous equations whose main operator is the fractional p-Laplacian and the lower order term depends on $x$, $u$ and $D_s^p u$, being the last one…

Solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation $H(x,-Du(x))=1$, with $H(\cdot,p)$ H\"older continuous and $H(x,\cdot)$ convex and positively homogeneous of degree 1, are shown to be locally semiconcave with a power-like modulus. An essential…
