Abstract
We consider nonlinear optimal control problems with state constraints and nonnegative cost in infinite dimensions, where the constraint is a closed set possibly with empty interior for a class of systems with a maximal monotone operator and satisfying certain stability properties of the set of trajectories that allow the value function to be lower semicontinuous. We prove that the value function is a viscosity solution of the Bellman equation and is in fact the minimal nonnegative supersolution.

User’s guide to viscosity solutions of second order partial differential equations

TL;DR: The notion of viscosity solutions of scalar fully nonlinear partial differential equations of second order provides a framework in which startling comparison and uniqueness theorems, existence theorem, and continuous dependence may now be proved by very efficient and striking arguments as discussed by the authors.
