We show that if a Hamilton-Jacobi equation admits a differentiable solution whose gradient is Lipschitz, then this solution is the unique semi-concave weak solution. Our result does not rely on any convexity (nor concavity) assumptions on…
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…
