Abstract

The paper deals with the construction of a multivalued solution of the Cauchy problem for the Hamilton–Jacobi equation with discontinuous Hamiltonian with respect to the phase variable. The constructed multivalued solution is approximated by a sequence of continuous solutions of auxiliary Cauchy problems of the Hamilton–Jacobi equation with Hamiltonian which is Lipschitz with respect to the phase variable. The results of the study are illustrated by an example.
