It is well known that when the nonlinearity is convex, the Hamilton-Jacobi PDE admits a unique semi-convex weak solution, which is the viscosity solution. In this paper, motivated by problems arising from spin glasses, we show that if the…

For the discounted Hamilton-Jacobi equation,$$\lambda u+H(x,d_x u)=0, \ x \in M, $$we construct $C^{1,1}$ subsolutions which are indeed solutions on the projected Aubry set. The smoothness of such subsolutions can be improved under…

Relying on the analysis of characteristics, we prove the uniqueness of conservative solutions to the variational wave equation $u_{tt}-c(u) (c(u)u_x)_x=0$. Given a solution $u(t,x)$, even if the wave speed $c(u)$ is only H\"older continuous…

For evolutive Hamilton-Jacobi equations, we propose a refined definition of C^0-variational solution, adapted to Cauchy problems for continuous initial data. In this weaker framework we investigate the Markovian (or semigroup) property for…

For two commuting Tonelli Hamiltonians, we recover the commutation of the Lax-Oleinik semi-groups, a result of Barles and Tourin ([BT01]), using a direct geometrical method (Stoke's theorem). We also obtain a "generalization" of a theorem…

We consider the following evolutionary Hamilton-Jacobi equation with initial condition: \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \partial_tu(x,t)+H(x,u(x,t),\partial_xu(x,t))=0,\\ u(x,0)=\phi(x), \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $\phi(x)\in…

For any $\alpha $ small, we construct infinitely many $C^{1,\alpha}$ very weak solutions to the 2-Hessian equation with prescribed boundary value. The proof relies on the convex integration method and cut-off technique.

We study the Cauchy problem for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation with a semiconcave initial condition. We prove an inequality between two types of weak solutions emanating from such an initial condition (the variational and the viscosity…
