Convexity criteria and uniqueness of absolutely minimizing functions

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We show that absolutely minimizing functions relative to a convex Hamiltonian H:Rn→RH:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R} are uniquely determined by their boundary values under minimal assumptions on H.H. Along the way, we extend the known equivalences between comparison with cones, convexity criteria, and absolutely minimizing properties, to this generality. These results perfect a long development in the uniqueness/existence theory of the archetypal problem of the calculus of variations in L∞.L^\infty.
