Infinity Laplacian

In mathematics, the infinity Laplace (or -Laplace) operator is a 2nd-order partial differential operator, commonly abbreviated . It is alternately defined by or The first version avoids the singularity which occurs when the gradient vanishes, while the second version is homogeneous of order zero in the gradient. Verbally, the second version is the second derivative in the direction of the gradient. In the case of the infinity Laplace equation , the two definitions are equivalent. While the equation involves second derivatives, usually (generalized) solutions are not twice differentiable, as evidenced by the well-known Aronsson solution . For this reason the correct notion of solutions is that given by the viscosity solutions. Viscosity solutions to the equation are also known as infinity harmonic functions. This terminology arises from the fact that the infinity Laplace operator first arose in the study of absolute minimizers for , and it can be viewed in a certain sense as the limit of the p-Laplacian as . More recently, viscosity solutions to the infinity Laplace equation have been identified with the payoff functions from randomized tug-of-war games. The game theory point of view has significantly improved the understanding of the partial differential equation itself. (Wikipedia).

Can You Define the Immeasurable?

What is infinity? Can you define something that, by definition, has no boundaries? A subject extensively studied by philosophers, mathematicians, and more recently, physicists and cosmologists, infinity still stands as an enigma of the intellectual world. We asked people from all walks of

Infinity root of infinity

A classic calculus 1 limit problem, evaluating the limit of x-th root of x as x goes to infinity. This is an inf^0 indeterminate form example. We will have to convert the x-root of x to x^(1/x) and then write x as e^ln(x) and use L'Hopital's Rule. Try this next: what do you think what (inf

What is infinity ?

Definition of infinity In this video, I define the concept of infinity (as used in analysis), and explain what it means for sup(S) to be infinity. In particular, the least upper bound property becomes very elegant to write down. Check out my real numbers playlist: https://www.youtube.co

The Loewner energy for Jordan curves first arises from the large deviations of Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE), a family of random fractal curves modeling interfaces in 2D statistical mechanics. In a certain way, this energy measures the roundness of a Jordan curve, and we show that it is
