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 show that non-dominated sorting of a sequence of i.i.d. random variables in Euclidean space has a continuum limit that corresponds to solving a Hamilton-Jacobi equation involving the probability density function of the random variables.…
We study an equation governed by a discontinuous fully nonlinear operator. Such discontinuities are solution-dependent, which introduces a free boundary. Working under natural assumptions, we prove the existence of $L^p$-viscosity and…
