Let $u$ be the unique nonnegative viscosity solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation $H(x,\nabla u)=0$ in the external domain ${\mathbb R}^{ n} \setminus K$ with $u=0$ on $K$. Under general conditions on $H$, we prove that all sublevels of…

We establish that a viscosity solution to a multidimensional Hamilton-Jacobi equation with Bohr almost periodic initial data remains to be spatially almost periodic and the additive subgroup generated by its spectrum does not increase in…

A section of a Hamiltonian system is a hypersurface in the phase space of the system, usually representing a set of one-sided constraints (e.g. a boundary, an obstacle or a set of admissible states). In this paper we give local…
