We consider the well-posedness and numerical approximation of a Hamilton--Jacobi equation on an evolving hypersurface in $\mathbb R^3$. Definitions of viscosity sub- and supersolutions are extended in a natural way to evolving hypersurfaces…

We study the Cauchy problem of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation with the spatial variable in a closed convex cone. A monotonicity assumption on the nonlinearity allows us to prescribe no condition on the boundary of the cone. We show the…
We study the homogenization of first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space, motivated by systems of infinitely many indistinguishable particles on the torus. A central difficulty is that the analysis takes…
We prove homogenization for a class of viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the stationary and ergodic setting in one space dimension. Our assumptions include most notably the following: the Hamiltonian is of the form $G(p) + \beta…
Main objects of the paper are stationary and weak KAM Hamilton-Jacobi equations on the finite-dimensional torus. The key idea of the paper is to replace the underlying calculus of variations problems with continuous time Markov decision…
