We prove a new asymptotic mean value formula for the $p$-Laplace operator, $$ \Delta_p u=\text{div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u), $$ valid in the viscosity sense. In the plane, and for a certain range of $p$, the mean value formula holds in…

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…

Let $1\le p\le\infty$. We show that a function $u\in C(\mathbb R^N)$ is a viscosity solution to the normalized $p$-Laplace equation $\Delta_p^n u(x)=0$ if and only if the asymptotic formula $$ u(x)=\mu_p(\ve,u)(x)+o(\ve^2) $$ holds as…

We consider the (viscosity) solution $u^\varepsilon$ of the elliptic equation $\varepsilon^2\Delta_p^G u= u$ in a domain (not necessarily bounded), satisfying $u=1$ on its boundary. Here, $\Delta_p^G$ is the {\it game-theoretic or…

We characterize an asymptotic mean value formula in the viscosity sense for the double phase elliptic equation $$ -{\rm div}(\lvert \nabla u \rvert^{p-2}\nabla u+ a(x)\lvert\nabla u \rvert^{q-2}\nabla u)=0 $$ and the normalized double phase…

We consider the (viscosity) solution $u(x,t)$ of the nonlinear evolution equation $u_t-\Delta^G_p u=0$ in a (not necessarily bounded) domain $\Omega$, such that $u=0$ in $\Omega$ at time $t=0$ and $u=1$ on the boundary of $\Omega$ at all…

We derive two equivalent definitions of the viscosity solutions to the homogeneous sub-p- Laplace parabolic equations on the Heisenberg group, and characterize the viscosity solutions in terms of an asymptotic mean value formula. Moreover,…

Let $1<p \leq \infty$. We provide an asymptotic characterization of continuous viscosity solutions $u$ of the normalized $p$-Laplacian $\Delta_{p\,\mathbb{G}}^N u=0$ in any Carnot group $\mathbb{G}$.

This paper concerns value functions of time-dependent tug-of-war games. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of value functions and verify that these game values satisfy a dynamic programming principle. Using the arguments in the…

We extend the symmetry result of Serrin and Weinberger from the Laplacian operator to the highly degenerate game-theoretic $p$-Laplacian operator and show that viscosity solutions of $-\Delta_p^Nu=1$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ and $\tfrac{\partial…

Mean value formulas are of great importance in the theory of partial differential equations: many very useful results are drawn, for instance, from the well known equivalence between harmonic functions and mean value properties. In the…

In this paper, we are concerned with game-theoretic interpretations to the following oblique derivative boundary value problem \begin{align*} \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \Delta_{p}^{N}u=0 & \textrm{in $ \Omega$,}\\ \langle \beta , Du \rangle…

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…

In recent years there has been an increasing interest in whether a mean value property, known to characterize harmonic functions, can be extended in some weak form to solutions of nonlinear equations. This question has been partially…

In this paper we characterize viscosity solutions to nonlinear parabolic equations (including parabolic Monge-Amp\`ere equations) by asymptotic mean value formulas. Our asymptotic mean value formulas can be interpreted from a probabilistic…

The $p$-Laplacian operator $\Delta_pu={\rm div }\left(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\right)$ is not uniformly elliptic for any $p\in(1,2)\cup(2,\infty)$ and degenerates even more when $p\to \infty$ or $p\to 1$. In those two cases the Dirichlet…

We consider the solution of $u_t-\Delta^G_p u=0$ in a (not necessarily bounded) domain, satisfying $u=0$ initially and $u=1$ on the boundary at all times. Here, $\Delta^G_p u$ is the game-theoretic or normalized $p$-laplacian. We derive new…

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…
