8 Approaches for singular perturbation problem Goal. Asymptotic analysis when ε goes to zero? Dynamical system approach: Asymptotic behavior of trajectory ( X ε ( ), Y ε ( ) ), as ε 0. Order reduction method: for ODE [Levinson & Tichonov]; for control system [Kokotovíc, Khalil, O Reilly, Bensoussan, Dontchev, Zolezzi, Veliov,...]; Averaging method (limit occupational measures): Artstein, Gaitsgory, Leizarowitz and orthers. Thuong Nguyen (Roma Sapienza) Asymptotic of SPCS: non-periodic setting November 10-12, / 26

9 PDE approach: [Alvarez & Bardi, 2001, 2003, 2010] Asymptotic behavior of value function v ε, as ε 0? Under suitable assumptions, v ε is the unique viscosity solution of HJB equation {v t ε + H ( x, y, D x v ε, D y v ) ε = 0 in R n R m (0, + ), ε v ε (x, y, 0) = h(x) in R n R m, where H(x, y, p, q) = max a A { p f (x, y, a) q g(x, y, a) l(x, y, a) }. Thuong Nguyen (Roma Sapienza) Asymptotic of SPCS: non-periodic setting November 10-12, / 26

10 PDE approach aims at characterizing limit of v ε as viscosity (sub-super) solutions of appropriate effective HJB equation { v t + H(x, Dv) = 0 in R n (0, + ), v(x, 0) = h(x) in R n. (1) In this talk, we will follow the PDE approach. Thuong Nguyen (Roma Sapienza) Asymptotic of SPCS: non-periodic setting November 10-12, / 26

19 Weak semilimits Under standing assumptions, { v ε}, ε > 0, is equibounded in R n R m [0, + ), hence we can define upper semilimit and lower semilimit of v ε, as ε 0, respectively, by v (x, t) := v (x, t) := lim sup ε 0, (x,t ) (x,t) lim inf ε 0, (x,t ) (x,t) sup v ε (x, y, t ), y R m inf v ε (x, y, t ). y R m Note that, v (x, t) and v (x, t) are, respectively, bounded upper semicontinuous and bounded lower semicontinuous in R n [0, + ).
