In this paper we use probabilistic arguments (Tug-of-War games) to obtain existence of viscosity solutions to a parabolic problem of the form $$ {cases} K_{(x,t)}(D u)u_t (x,t)= \frac12 <D^2 u J_{(x,t)}(D u),J_{(x,t)}(D u) (x,t) &{in}…

The objective is the interplay between stochastic processes and partial differential equations. To be more precise, we focus on the connection between the nonlinear p-Laplace equation, and the stochastic game called tug-of-war with noise.…

We introduce a game-theoretical framework for the doubly nonlinear parabolic equation \[ |\partial_t u|^{p-2} \partial_t u - \Delta_p u = 0. \] where $\Delta_p u = \nabla \cdot ( |\nabla u |^{p-2} \nabla u)$ with $p>2$ is the standard…

We present a modified version of the two-player "tug-of-war" game introduced by Peres, Schramm, Sheffield, and Wilson. This new tug-of-war game is identical to the original except near the boundary of the domain $\partial \Omega$, but its…

This paper concerns the fractional $p$-Laplace operator $\Delta_p^s$ in non-divergence form, which has been introduced in [Bjorland, Caffarelli, Figalli (2012)]. For any $p\in [2,\infty)$ and $s\in (\frac{1}{2},1)$ we first define two…

We consider the obstacle problem for the infinity Laplace equation. Given a Lipschitz boundary function and a Lipschitz obstacle we prove the existence and uniqueness of a super infinity-harmonic function constrained to lie above the…

In this work we discuss a random Tug-of-War game in graphs where one of the players has the power to decide at each turn whether to play a round of classical random Tug-of-War, or let the other player choose the new game position in…

Motivated by the "tug-of-war" game studied in [12], we consider a "non-local" version of the game which goes as follows: at every step two players pick respectively a direction and then, instead of flipping a coin in order to decide which…

We consider a number of boundary value problems involving the $p$-Laplacian. The model case is $-\Delta_p u=V|u|^{p-2}u$ for $u\in W_0^{1,2}(D)$ with $D$ a bounded domain in ${\bf R}^n$. We derive necessary conditions for the existence of…

We prove an asymptotic Lipschitz estimate for value functions of tug-of-war games with varying probabilities defined in $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$. The method of the proof is based on a game-theoretic idea to estimate the value of a…

We propose a new version of the tug-of-war game and a corresponding dynamic programming principle related to the $p$-Laplacian with $1<p<2$. For this version, the asymptotic H\"older continuity of solutions can be directly derived from…

We study the double-obstacle problem for the p-Laplace operator, p 2 [2;1). We prove that for Lipschitz boundary data and Lipschitz obstacles, viscosity solutions are unique and coincide with variational solutions. They are also uniform…

In this paper, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the following model problem, involving singularities and inhomogeneous Robin boundary conditions \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}…

We introduce a new class of strongly degenerate nonlinear parabolic PDEs $$((p-2)\Delta_{\infty,X}^N+\Delta_X)u(X,Y,t)+(m+p)(X\cdot\nabla_Yu(X,Y,t)-\partial_tu(X,Y,t))=0,$$ $(X,Y,t)\in\mathbb R^m\times \mathbb R^m\times \mathbb R$, $p\in…

We study the asymptotic behaviour, as $p\to 1^{+}$, of the solutions of the following inhomogeneous Robin boundary value problem: \begin{equation} \label{pbabstract} \tag{P} \left\{\begin{array}{ll} \displaystyle -\Delta_p u_p = f &…

We study the Dirichlet problem of the following discrete infinity Laplace equation on a subgraph with finite width $$\Delta_{\infty} u(x) = \inf_{y \sim x}u(y)+\sup_{y \sim x}u(y)-2u(x) = f(x).$$ We say that a subgraph has finite width if…

In this paper we give a broad overview of the intersection of partial differential equations (PDEs) and graph-based semi-supervised learning. The overview is focused on a large body of recent work on PDE continuum limits of graph-based…

We formulate a stochastic differential game in continuous time that represents the unique viscosity solution to a terminal value problem for a parabolic partial differential equation involving the normalized $p(x,t)$-Laplace operator. Our…

We study a class of deterministic mean field games and related optimal control problems, with a finite time horizon and in which the state space is a network. An agent controls her velocity, and, when she occupies a vertex, she can either…

Motivated by tug-of-war games and asymptotic analysis of certain variational problems, we consider a gradient constraint problem involving the infinity Laplace operator. We prove that this problem always has a solution that is unique if a…
