Solving Nonlinear Absolute Value Equations

In this work, we show that several problems naturally represented as Nonlinear Absolute Value Equations (NAVE) can be reformulated as Nonlinear Complementarity Problems (NCP) and efficiently solved using smoothing regularization techniques under mild assumptions. As far as we know, this is the first numerical approach that directly deals with NAVE. We also identify a technical assumption commonly utilized in smoothing techniques and prove its equivalence to a classical __ojasiewicz inequality at infinity, validating its non-restrictive nature. Furthermore, we extend established error estimates for NCP solvers to derive error bounds for NAVE problems under weaker assumptions. We illustrate the effectiveness of our approach through applications including asymmetric ridge optimization and nonlinear ordinary differential equations.

Comparison principle for general nonlocal Hamilton-Jacobi equations with superlinear gradient

We obtain the comparison principle for discontinuous viscosity sub- and supersolutions of nonlocal Hamilton-Jacobi equations, with superlinear and coercive gradient terms. The nonlocal terms are integro-differential operators in Lévy form, with general measures: $x$-dependent, possibly degenerate and without any restriction on the order. The measures must satisfy a combined Wasserstein/Total Variation-continuity assumption, which is one of the weakest conditions used in the context of viscosity approach for this type of integro-differential PDEs. The proof relies on a regularizing effect due to the gradient growth. We present several examples of applications to PDEs with different types of nonlocal operators (measures with density, operators of variable order, Lévy-Itô operators).

Metric compatibility and determination in complete metric spaces

It was established in [8] that Lipschitz inf-compact functions are uniquely determined by their local slope and critical values. Compactness played a paramount role in this result, ensuring in particular the existence of critical points. We hereby emancipate from this restriction and establish a determination result for merely bounded from below functions, by adding an assumption controlling the asymptotic behavior. This assumption is trivially fulfilled if $f$ is inf-compact. In addition, our result is not only valid for the (De Giorgi) local slope, but also for the main paradigms of average descent operators as well as for the global slope, case in which the asymptotic assumption becomes superfluous. Therefore, the present work extends simultaneously the metric determination results of [8] and [18].
