Abstract In this paper we study systems of weakly coupled Hamilton-Jacobi equations with implicit obstacles that arise in optimal switching problems. Inspired by methods from the theory of viscosity solutions and weak KAM theory, we extend the notion of Aubry set for these systems. This enables us to prove a new result on existence and uniqueness of solutions for the Dirichlet problem, answering a question of F. Camilli, P. Loreti, and N. Yamada.

AbstractWe study the asymptotic behavior of solutions to the constrained MFG system as the time horizon T goes to infinity. For this purpose, we analyze first Hamilton–Jacobi equations with state constraints from the viewpoint of weak KAM theory, constructing a Mather measure for the associated variational problem. Using these results, we show that a solution to the constrained ergodic mean field games system exists and the ergodic constant is unique. Finally, we prove that any solution of the first-order constrained MFG problem on [0, T] converges to the solution of the ergodic system as T goes to infinity.

AbstractWe are concerned with the existence of smooth time functions on connected time-oriented Lorentzian manifolds. The problem is tackled in a more general abstract setting, namely in a manifold M where is just defined a field of tangent convex cones (Cx)x ∈ M enjoying mild continuity properties. Under some conditions on its integral curves, we will construct a time function.Our approach is based on the definition of an intrinsic length for curves indicating how a curve is far from being an integral trajectory of Cx. We find connections with topics pertaining to Hamilton–Jacobi equations, and make use of tools and results issued from weak KAM theory.
