19 Statement and application of Lipschitz regularity result Proof (Cont.) Since u λ is a viscosity solution and hence subsolution of (SP). Then, at the maximum point y, we have λu λ (y) tr(σ(y)σ T (y)d 2 φ(y)) + αy.dφ(y) + H(y, Dφ(y)) f (y). Moreover, φ satisfies tr(σ(y)σ T (y)d 2 φ(y)) + αy.dφ(y) C H Dφ(y) φ(y) B, here C H, B > 0. Therefore, using the sublinearity of H we obtain λu λ (y) f (y) φ(y) + B + C H. hi Tuyen Nguyen (Ph.D student of University of Rennes Lipschitz 1 Joint continuity work with: for solutions Prof. E.

20 Statement and application of Lipschitz regularity result Proof (Cont.) Since u λ is a viscosity solution and hence subsolution of (SP). Then, at the maximum point y, we have λu λ (y) tr(σ(y)σ T (y)d 2 φ(y)) + αy.dφ(y) + H(y, Dφ(y)) f (y). Moreover, φ satisfies tr(σ(y)σ T (y)d 2 φ(y)) + αy.dφ(y) C H Dφ(y) φ(y) B, here C H, B > 0. Therefore, using the sublinearity of H we obtain λu λ (y) f (y) φ(y) + B + C H. Since y is a maximum point of u(x) φ(x) for x R N, then using the above inequality we have λu λ (x) λφ(x) + λu λ (y) λφ(y) x R N λφ(x) φ(y) + B + C H + f (y) λφ(y) λ (0, 1) φ(x) + B + C H + f (y) φ(y) C x R N. The proof for the opposite inequality is the same by considering min R N {u λ (x) + φ(x)}. hi Tuyen Nguyen (Ph.D student of University of Rennes Lipschitz 1 Joint continuity work with: for solutions Prof. E.

Therefore, using the sublinearity of H we obtain λu λ (y) f (y) φ(y) + B + C H. Since y is a maximum point of u(x) φ(x) for x R N, then using the above inequality we have λu λ (x) λφ(x) + λu λ (y) λφ(y) x R N λφ(x) φ(y) + B + C H + f (y) λφ(y) λ (0, 1) φ(x) + B + C H + f (y) φ(y) C x R N. The proof for the opposite inequality is the same by considering min R N {u λ (x) + φ(x)}. Now we set v λ (x) = u λ (x) u λ (0) and using (LR) we have v λ (x) C x (φ(x) + 1) v λ (x) v λ (y) C x y (φ(x) + φ(y)).

22 Statement and application of Lipschitz regularity result Proof (Cont.) Therefore {v λ } λ (0,1) is a uniformly bounded and equi-continuous family on any balls of R N. Then by Ascoli s theorem, we can choose a sequence {λ j } j N (0, 1) such that And from (8) we have Note that v λ j is a solution of v λ j v in C(R N ) as λ j 0. λ j u λ j (x) c R uniformly on balls of R N. λ j v λ j tr(σ(x)σ T (x)d 2 v λ j (x)) + αx.dv λ j (x) + H(x, Dv λ j (x)) = f (x) λ j u λ j (0) λ j 0 tr(σ(x)σ T (x)d 2 v) + αx.dv(x) + H(x, Dv(x)) = f (x) c.

24 Proof. Statement and application of Lipschitz regularity result We easily check that v(x) + ct L and v(x) + ct + L are solutions of (CP) with the initial condition replaced v(x) ± L. Then applying comparison principle for (CP) we get This implies v(x) + ct L u(x, t) v(x) + ct + L. v(x) L t u(x, t) t c v(x) + L. t Sending t to we obtain the result. Remark: More precise result-long time behavior. Let u is a solution of (CP), (c, v) is a solution of (EP). There exists a constant a R such that u(x, t) (ct + v(x)) a as t locally uniformly in R N.

We droped Φ-terms on both sides of the above inequality to simplify of explaination. Goal: reach a contradiction in (11). Case 1: r := x y r 0. The function ψ above was chosen to be strictly concave for small r r 0, we take profit of the ellipticity of the equation 4νψ (r) in (11) to control all the others terms.

34 Proof of Lipschitz regumarity theorem Proof of Theorem 1(Cont.) λ δ 4νψ ( x y ) + αψ ( x y ) x y (2C H + (1 + µ)c σ)ψ ( x y ) (11) +2(ψ( x y ) + δ) + 2C H + C f x y. We droped Φ-terms on both sides of the above inequality to simplify of explaination. Goal: reach a contradiction in (11). Case 1: r := x y r 0. The function ψ above was chosen to be strictly concave for small r r 0, we take profit of the ellipticity of the equation 4νψ (r) in (11) to control all the others terms. Case 2: r := x y r 0. In this case, the second derivative ψ (r) of the increasing concave function ψ is small and the ellipticity is not powerful enough to control the bad terms. Instead, we use the positive term αψ (r)r coming from the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator to control everything. Note that by using the good terms as explained in the two above cases, we can choose all of parameters independently of λ to reach a contradiction in (11). hi Tuyen Nguyen (Ph.D student of University of Rennes Lipschitz 1 Joint continuity work with: for solutions Prof. E.
