We study the Cauchy problem for the first order evolutive Hamilton-Jacobi equation with a Lipschitz initial condition. The Hamiltonian is not necessarily convex in the momentum variable and not a priori compactly supported. We build and…
We design fast numerical methods for Hamilton-Jacobi equations in density space (HJD), which arises in optimal transport and mean field games. We overcome the curse-of-infinite-dimensionality nature of HJD by proposing a generalized Hopf…

We study the large time behavior of solutions of first-order convex Hamilton-Jacobi Equations of Eikonal type set in the whole space. We assume that the solutions may have arbitrary growth. A complete study of the structure of solutions of…
This paper develops a comprehensive Hamilton-Jacobi framework to analyze asymptotic propagation dynamics in a field-road system featuring unidirectional advection and Wentzell-type boundary conditions. We rigorously derive a Hamilton-Jacobi…
We propose a new viewpoint on variational mean-field games with diffusion and quadratic Hamiltonian. We show the equivalence of such mean-field games with a relative entropy minimization at the level of probabilities on curves. We also…
We develop the theory of a metric, which we call the $\nu$-based Wasserstein metric and denote by $W_\nu$, on the set of probability measures $\mathcal P(X)$ on a domain $X \subseteq \mathbb{R}^m$. This metric is based on a slight…

Motivated by recent developments in mean-field games in ecology, in this paper we introduce a connection between the best response dynamics in evolutionary game theory, the minimization of the highest income of a game, and minimizing…
This paper develops a unified framework for proving the existence of solutions to stationary first-order mean-field games (MFGs) based on the theory of monotone operators in Banach spaces. We cast the coupled MFG system as a variational…
We consider the dynamics of a Hamiltonian particle forced by a rapidly oscillating potential in $\dim$-dimensional space. As alternative to the established approach of averaging Hamiltonian dynamics by reformulating the system as…
We study a trajectory-planning problem whose solution path evolves by means of a Lie group action and passes near a designated set of target positions at particular times. This is a higher-order variational problem in optimal control,…
We study a rather general class of optimal "ballistic" transport problems for matrix-valued measures. These problems naturally arise, in the spirit of \emph{Y. Brenier. Comm. Math. Phys. (2018) 364(2) 579-605}, from a certain dual…
Classical deterministic optimal control problems assume full information about the controlled process. The theory of control for general partially-observable processes is powerful, but the methods are computationally expensive and typically…
This paper studies a perturbation problem given by the equation: \begin{equation*} H(x, d_xu_\lambda, \lambda u_\lambda(x))+\lambda V(x,\lambda)=c \quad \text{in $M$}, \end{equation*} where $M$ is a closed manifold and $\lambda>0$ is a…
During recent decades, there has been a substantial development in optimal mass transport theory and methods. In this work, we consider multi-marginal problems wherein only partial information of each marginal is available, which is a setup…
We study a high-dimensional stochastic optimization problem which features both control and stopping. In particular, a central planner steers a large population of particles, and can also remove particles at any time by paying a penalty. In…
A Hamilton-Jacobi equation with Caputo's time-fractional derivative of order less than one is considered. The notion of a viscosity solution is introduced to prove unique existence of a solution to the initial value problem under periodic…
We consider massively dense ad hoc networks and study their continuum limits as the node density increases and as the graph providing the available routes becomes a continuous area with location and congestion dependent costs. We study both…
We prove stochastic homogenization for a class of non-convex and non-coercive first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations in a finite-range-dependence environment for Hamiltonians that can be expressed by a max-min formula. Exploiting the…
