Viscosity solutions for junctions: well posedness and stability

Abstract

We introduce a notion of state-constraint viscosity solutions for one dimensional \junction"-type problems for Hamilton-Jacobi equations with non convex coercive Hamiltonians and study its well- posedness and stability properties. We show that viscosity approximations either select the state- constraint solution or have a unique limit. We also introduce another type of approximation by fattening the domain. We also make connections with existing results for convex equations and discuss extensions to time dependent and/or multi-dimensional problems.
