This paper introduces in a natural way a notion of horizontal convex envelopes of continuous functions in the Heisenberg group. We provide a convexification process to find the envelope in a constructive manner. We also apply the…

This paper is concerned with a PDE approach to horizontally quasiconvex (h-quasiconvex) functions in the Heisenberg group based on a nonlinear second order elliptic operator. We discuss sufficient conditions and necessary conditions for…

Recently in a series of articles, Barron, Goebel, and Jensen \cite{barron2012functions} \cite{barron2012quasiconvex} \cite{barron2013quasiconvex} \cite{barron2013uniqueness} have studied second order degenerate elliptic PDE and first order…

We consider the Hamilton-Jacobi equation \[{H}(x,Du)+\lambda(x)u=c,\quad x\in M, \] where $M$ is a connected, closed and smooth Riemannian manifold. The functions ${H}(x,p)$ and $\lambda(x)$ are continuous. ${H}(x,p)$ is convex, coercive…

We construct an explicit representation of viscosity solutions of the Cauchy problem for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation $(H,\sigma)$ on a given domain $\Omega= (0,T)\times \R^n.$ It is known that, if the Hamiltonian $H = H(t,p)$ is not a…

We study different notions of quasiconvexity for a subgroup $H$ of a relatively hyperbolic group $G.$ The first result establishes equivalent conditions for $H$ to be relatively quasiconvex. As a corollary we obtain that the relative…

We prove that any locally bounded from below, upper semicontinuous v-convex function in any Carnot group is h-convex.

We investigate the notion of H-subdifferential and H-normal map of a function on the Heisenberg group, based on its sub-Riemannian structure. In particular, a characterization of the convexity of a function is given via the nonemptiness of…

In this paper, we consider the (upper) semigroup envelope, i.e. the least upper bound, of a given family of linear Feller semigroups. We explicitly construct the semigroup envelope and show that, under suitable assumptions, it yields…

We extend the Barles-Perthame procedure of semi-relaxed limits of viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations of the type f - lambda H f = h. The convergence result allows for equations on a `converging sequence of spaces' as well as…

In this paper, we present a notion of quasiconvexity in the setting of finitely-generated groups with hyperbolically embedded subgroups. Our main result shows that this notion yields uniform quasiconvex constants in the setting of coned-off…

The aim of this article is twofold. First, we develop a unified framework for viscosity solutions to both first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations and semilinear Hamilton-Jacobi equations driven by the idiosyncratic operator, defined on the…

After introducing the sub-Riemannian geometry of the Heisenberg group Hn, n \geq 1, we recall some basics about hypersurfaces endowed with the H-perimeter measure and horizontal Green's formulas. Then, we describe a class of compact closed…

We prove homogenization for degenerate viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations in dimension one in stationary ergodic environments with a quasiconvex and superlinear Hamiltonian of fairly general type. We furthermore show that the effective…

In this paper we show a uniqueness result for weak epigraphical solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations on infinite horizon for a class of lower semicontinuous functions vanishing at infinity. Weak epigraphical solutions of HJB…

We show that if $A$ is a closed subset of the Heisenberg group whose vertical projections are nowhere dense, then the complement of $A$ is quasiconvex. In particular, closed sets which are null sets for the cc-Hausdorff $3$-measure have…

Given a continuous viscosity solution of a Dirichlet-type Hamilton-Jacobi equation, we show that the distance function to the conjugate locus which is associated to this problem is locally semiconcave on its domain. It allows us to provide…

In this work, we provide conditions for nonlinear monotone semigroups on locally convex vector lattices to give rise to a generalized notion of viscosity solutions to a related nonlinear partial differential equation. The semigroup needs to…

In this paper we investigate the property of engulfing for $H$-convex functions defined on the Heisenberg group ${\mathbb{H}}^n$. Starting from the horizontal sections introduced by Capogna and Maldonado, we consider a new notion of…

We study regularity results for the solutions of quasilinear subelliptic $p$-Laplace type equation in Heisenberg groups. We prove somewhat surprising excess decay estimates for the constant coefficient homogeneous equation. Excess decay…
