    The paper deals with differentiability of absolute minimizers in \(n\)-dimensional spaces, with \(n \geq 3\). In particular, an everywhere differentiability and asymptotic Liouville property of absolute minimizers are proved for \(H\) in any domain of \(\mathbb{R}^n\), provided that \(H \in C^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)\) is locally strongly convex Hamiltonian, which represent the main contributions of the paper summarized through Theorems 1.1 and 1.2, respectively. The regularity of absolute minimizer is the main issue. The difficult relies on the fact that the approach developed into two spacial dimensions cannot be used for \(n \geq 3\). The basic idea developed in the paper consists in using a PDE approach based on an adjoint argument together with a special choice for the test functions. The obtained results are crucial to better understand the mathematical properties of viscosity solutions and their applications in game theory.
