For non convex Hamiltonians, the viscosity solution and the more geometric minimax solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation do not coincide in general. They are nevertheless related: we show that iterating the minimax procedure during…

We prove that the multi-time Hamilton-Jacobi equation in general cannot be solved in the viscosity sense, in the non-convex setting, even when the Hamiltonians are in involution.
We use the adjoint methods to study the static Hamilton-Jacobi equations and to prove the speed of convergence for those equations. The main new ideas are to introduce adjoint equations corresponding to the formal linearizations of…
We give a new perspective on the existence of viscosity solutions for a stationary and a time-dependent first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equation. Following recent comparison principles, we work in a framework in which we consider a subsolution…
We consider an initial value problem for a Hamilton--Jacobi equation with a quadratic and degenerate Hamiltonian. Our Hamiltonian comes from the dynamics of $N$-peakon in the Camassa--Holm equation. It is given by a quadratic form with a…

The paper deals with a zero-sum differential game for a dynamical system which motion is described by a nonlinear delay differential equation under an initial condition defined by a piecewise continuous function. The corresponding Cauchy…
Characteristics of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation can be seen as action minimizing trajectories of fluid particles. For nonsmooth "viscosity" solutions, which give rise to discontinuous velocity fields, this description is usually pursued only…
We study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the Dirichlet problem for Hamilton-Jacobi equations with large drift terms, where the drift terms are given by the Hamiltonian vector fields of Hamiltonian $H$. This is an attempt to…
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…
The large time behavior of solutions to Cauchy problem for viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equation is classified. The large time asymptotics are given by very singular self-similar solutions on one hand and by self-similar viscosity solutions on…
This paper is devoted to a viscosity solution theory of the stochastic Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation in the Wasserstein spaces for the mean-field type control problem which allows for random coefficients and may thus be non-Markovian.…
We present stochastic homogenization results for viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations using a new argument which is based only on the subadditive structure of maximal subsolutions (solutions of the "metric problem"). This permits us to give…
