Invariance of global solutions of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation

Ezequiel Maderna (2002)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We show that every global viscosity solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation associated with a convex and superlinear Hamiltonian on the cotangent bundle of a closed manifold is necessarily invariant under the identity component of the group of symmetries of the Hamiltonian (we prove that this group is a compact Lie group). In particular, every Lagrangian section invariant under the Hamiltonian flow is also invariant under this group.

GO++ : a modular lagrangian/eulerian software for Hamilton Jacobi equations of geometric optics type

Jean-David Benamou, Philippe Hoch (2002)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

Similarity:

We describe both the classical lagrangian and the Eulerian methods for first order Hamilton–Jacobi equations of geometric optic type. We then explain the basic structure of the software and how new solvers/models can be added to it. A selection of numerical examples are presented.
