Abstract:

We perform a qualitative investigation of critical Hamilton--Jacobi equations, with stationary ergodic Hamiltonian, in dimension $1$. We show the existence of approximate correctors, give characterizing conditions for the existence of correctors, provide Lax--type representation formulae and establish comparison principles. The results are applied to look into the corresponding effective Hamiltonian and to study an homogenization problem. In the analysis a crucial role is played by tools issued from stochastic geometry such as, for instance, closed random stationary sets.
