Viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations in infinite dimensions. V: Unbounded linear terms and \(B\)-continuous solutions (Q1175016): Difference between revisions

[For part IV see the authors, ibid. 90, No. 2, 237-283 (1990; Zbl 0739.49016).] This paper is the fifth in a series on viscosity solutions of first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations in infinite dimensions. This particular paper treats Hamilton-Jacobi equations in a real separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space involving linear terms \(\langle Ax,\nabla u\rangle\) with \(A\) being an unbounded linear maximal monotone operator in the Hilbert space and \(\nabla u\) being the Fréchet differential of \(u\). The existence results introduce the idea of \(B\)-continuity (continuity with respect to a bounded linear oprator). Solutions are constructed via representation formulas from differential games and optimal control, and not from Perron's method.
