We study the inverse problem, or inverse design problem, for a time-evolution Hamilton-Jacobi equation. More precisely, given a target function $u_T$ and a time horizon $T>0$, we aim to construct all the initial conditions for which the…

We prove that a directed last passage percolation model with discontinuous macroscopic (non-random) inhomogeneities has a continuum limit that corresponds to solving a Hamilton-Jacobi equation in the viscosity sense. This Hamilton-Jacobi…

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…

We consider Hamiltonians associated to optimal control problems for affine systems on the torus. They are not coercive and are possibly unbounded from below in the direction of the drift of the system. The main assumption is the strong…

We obtain new oscillation and gradient bounds for the viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic equations where the Hamiltonian is a sum of a sublinear and a superlinear part in the sense of Barles and Souganidis (2001). We…
