Abstract: We study quantitative compactness estimates in mathbfWloc1,1 for the map St, t>0 that associates to every given initial data u0inLip(mathbbRN) the corresponding solution Stu0 of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation u_t+H�ig( abla_{/!x} u�ig)=0,, qquad tgeq 0,quad xin mathbb{R}^N, with a uniformly convex Hamiltonian H=H(p). We provide upper and lower estimates of order 1/varepsilonN on the the Kolmogorov varepsilon-entropy in mathbfW1,1 of the image through the map St of sets of bounded, compactly supported initial data. Estimates of this type are inspired by a question posed by P.D. Lax within the context of conservation laws, andcould provide a measure of the order of "resolution" of a numerical method implemented for this equation.
