Abstract

We generalize the results of [23] to higher-dimensional ramified spaces. To this end, we introduce ramified manifolds and — as a special case — locally elementary polygonal ramified spaces (LEP-Spaces). On LEP-Spaces we develop a theory of viscosity solutions for Hamilton–Jacobi equations and provide existence and uniqueness results.
