Abstract

This paper describes a new example of a calculus of variations problem with the Lavrentiev phenomenon, a problem with different value functions for different classes of admissible trajectories. Such problems provide examples of nonuniqueness for Hamilton-Jacobi equations since each value function is a solution. The authors describe these solutions and the corresponding optimal trajectories and focus on how a standard proof of optimality is adapted for these examples.
