On the Gromov--Hausdorff stability of metric viscosity solutions

Abstract

We establish the stability of metric viscosity solutions to first-order Hamilton--Jacobi equations under Gromov--Hausdorff convergence. Our proof combines a characterization of metric viscosity solutions via quadratic distance functions with a doubling variable method adapted to epsilon-isometries, which allows us to pass to the Gromov--Hausdorff limit without embedding the spaces into a common ambient space. As a byproduct, we give a PDE-based proof of the stability of the dual Kantorovich problems under measured-Gromov--Hausdorff convergence.
