Minimax and viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the convex case (Q2464567): Difference between revisions

The authors construct an extension of Hopf's formula, for more general non-integrable Hamiltonians, often used to produce viscosity solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations for \(p\)-convex integrable Hamiltonians. Moreover, they present a proof of the coincidence of minimax and viscosity solutions, essentially based on an Amann-Conley-Zehnder reduction of the action functional of the Hamilton-Helmholtz variational principle.
