Abstract: If $U:[0,+infty[imesM$ is a uniformly continuous viscosity solution of the evolution Hamilton-Jacobi equation ${\displaystyle }$partial_tU+ H(x,partial_xU)=0,${\displaystyle }$ where $M$ is a not necessarily compact manifold, and $H$ is a Tonelli Hamiltonian, we prove the set $Sigma(U)$, of points where $U$ is not differentiable, is locally contractible. Moreover, we study the homotopy type of $Sigma(U)$. We also give an application to the singularities of a distance function to a closed subset of a complete Riemannian manifold.
