The Hamiltonian treatment of constrained systems in $G\ddot{u}ler's$ formalism leads us to the total differential equations in many variables. These equations are integrable if the corresponding system of partial differential equations is a…
We consider in this note the Hamilton-Jacobi equation H(x, dx u) = c, where c \geq 0, of the classical N-body problem in an Euclidean space E of dimension k \geq 2. The fixed points of the Lax-Oleinik semigroup are global viscosity…

In this paper we will focus on a parabolic degenerate system with respect to unknown functions u and w on a bounded domain of the two-dimensional Euclidean space. This system appears as a mathematical model for some biological processes.…
We consider Hamilton Jacobi Bellman equations in an inifinite dimensional Hilbert space, with quadratic (respectively superquadratic) hamiltonian and with continuous (respectively lipschitz continuous) final conditions. This allows to study…
In arXiv:1603.01051 (Part 1 of this series), we have introduced a variational approach to studying the vanishing discount problem for fully nonlinear, degenerate elliptic, partial differential equations in a torus. We develop this approach…
We study an ergodic problem associated to a non-local Hamilton-Jacobi equation defined on the whole space $\lambda-\mathcal{L}[u](x)+|Du(x)|^m=f(x)$ and determine whether (unbounded) solutions exist or not. We prove that there is a…
We extend some aspects of the Hamilton-Jacobi theory to the category of stochastic Hamiltonian dynamical systems. More specifically, we show that the stochastic action satisfies the Hamilton-Jacobi equation when, as in the classical…

We show that, in the periodic homogenization of uniformly elliptic Hamilton-Jacobi equations in any dimension, the effective Hamiltonian does not necessarily inherit the quasiconvexity property (in the momentum variables) of the original…
Any given system of ordinary differential equations in $n$-dimensional configuration space can be obtained from a peculiar variational problem with one local symmetry. The obtained action functional leads to the Hamiltonian formulation in…

Consider the Hamiltonian $abcd$ system in one dimension, with data posed in the energy space $H^1\times H^1$. This model, introduced by Bona, Chen and Saut, is a well-known physical generalization of the classical Boussinesq equations. The…
We consider Hamiltonian closures of the Vlasov equation using the phase-space moments of the distribution function. We provide some conditions on the closures imposed by the Jacobi identity. We completely solve some families of examples. As…
