Large deviations of a velocity jump process with a Hamilton–Jacobi approach
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 355 (2017) no. 2, pp. 170-175

We study a random process on Rn moving in straight lines and changing randomly its velocity at random exponential times. We focus more precisely on the Kolmogorov equation in the hyperbolic scale (t,x,v)→(tε,xε,v), with ε>0, before proceeding to a Hopf–Cole transform, which gives a kinetic equation on a potential. We show convergence as ε→0 of the potential towards the viscosity solution to a Hamilton–Jacobi equation ∂tφ+H(∇xφ)=0 where the Hamiltonian may lack C1 regularity, which is quite unseen in this type of studies.

Nous nous intéressons à un processus aléatoire sur Rn qui alterne des phases de mouvements rectilignes uniformes et change de vitesse à des temps exponentiels. Nous étudions plus précisément l'équation de Kolmogorov après rééchelonnement hyperbolique (t,x,v)→(tε,xε,v), ε>0, puis nous effectuons une transformée de Hopf–Cole qui nous donne une équation cinétique suivie par un potentiel. Nous montrons la convergence pour ε→0 de ce potentiel vers la solution de viscosités d'une équation de Hamilton–Jacobi ∂tφ+H(∇xφ)=0 où le hamiltonien peut présenter une singularité C1, ce qui est assez inédit dans ce type d'études.
