We prove comparison, uniqueness and existence results for viscosity solutions to a wide class of fully nonlinear second order partial differential equations $F(x, u, du, d^{2}u)=0$ defined on a finite-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$.…
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…

This work provides a comparison principle for viscosity solutions to boundary value problems on (partially) bounded, cylindrical spaces. The comparison principle is based on a test function framework, that allows for the simultaneous…

We give a meaning to the Hamilton--Jacobi equation arising from mean-field spin glass models in the viscosity sense, and establish the corresponding well-posedness. Originally defined on the set of monotone probability measures, these…
Viscosity solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation were introduced by Lions and Crandall. For Tonelli Hamiltonians, these solutions are generated by the Lax-Oleinik operator. It is known that this operator converges in the autonomous…
We study the boundary rigidity problem for compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary $(M,g)$: is the Riemannian metric $g$ uniquely determined, up to an action of diffeomorphism fixing the boundary, by the distance function $\rho_g(x,y)$…
We study cavitation type equations, $\text{div}(a_{ij}(X) \nabla u) \sim \delta_0(u)$, for bounded, measurable elliptic media $a_{ij}(X)$. De Giorgi-Nash-Moser theory assures that solutions are $\alpha$-H\"older continuous within its set of…
We consider an initial value problem for a Hamilton--Jacobi equation with a quadratic and degenerate Hamiltonian. Our Hamiltonian comes from the dynamics of $N$-peakon in the Camassa--Holm equation. It is given by a quadratic form with a…
We consider the product of a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary and null scalar curvature with a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, null scalar curvature and constant mean curvature on the boundary. We use bifurcation…
We study the large time behavior of Lipschitz continuous, possibly unbounded, viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi Equations in the whole space $\R^N$. The associated ergodic problem has Lipschitz continuous solutions if the analogue of…
For a Hamilton-Jacobi equation defined on a network, we introduce its vanishing viscosity approximation. The elliptic equation is given on the edges and coupled with Kirchhoff-type conditions at the transition vertices. We prove that there…
We establish a global rigidity theorem for Riemannian metrics without conjugate points on three-manifolds of the form $M = \Sigma \times S^1$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact orientable surface of genus at least 2. The main result states that…
The aim of this work is to deal with a discontinuous Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the whole euclidian N-dimensional space, associated to a possibly unbounded optimal control problem. Here, the discontinuities are located on a hyperplane and…

Motivated by parallels between mean field games and random matrix theory, we develop stochastic optimal control problems and viscosity solutions to Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the setting of non-commutative variables. Rather than real…
We adapt the viscosity method introduced by Rivi\`ere to the free boundary case. Namely, given a compact oriented surface $\Sigma$, possibly with boundary, a closed ambient Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal{M}^m,g)$ and a closed embedded…
