The Langevin operator is the penalty-drift operator with potential V; the sublevel sets of V are bounded, so the gradient of V is one-sided Lipschitz on them, and the general well-posedness theorem applies.

Proof

Each result cited is universally quantified over the data in its own statement. We apply Well-Posedness of the Penalty-Drift Hamilton-Jacobi Equation under a Dissipation Inequality with D=RnD=\mathbb{R}^{n}, which is open by claim 1 of Euclidean Space is Open in Itself, and CkC^k Maps are Continuous and nonempty (it contains the origin 0Rn0_{\mathbb{R}^{n}}), and with the penalty P=VP=V. By The Hamilton-Jacobi Equation for Controlled Langevin Dynamics in a Potential on Euclidean Space §operator, FF is the penalty-drift Hamilton-Jacobi operator with potential VV and the given coefficients, and the dissipation hypothesis Well-Posedness of the Langevin Hamilton-Jacobi Equation on Euclidean Space under a Dissipation Inequality §dissipation is hypothesis Well-Posedness of the Penalty-Drift Hamilton-Jacobi Equation under a Dissipation Inequality §dissipation for P=VP=V.

It remains to verify hypothesis Well-Posedness of the Penalty-Drift Hamilton-Jacobi Equation under a Dissipation Inequality §one-sided. Let R∈RR\in\mathbb{R} and DR={x∈Rn:V(x)<R}D_{R}=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^{n}:V(x)<R\}. By Basic Properties of the Sublevel Sets of a Penalty §sublevel-sets, DRD_{R} is bounded. Since VV is of class C2C^{2} on Rn\mathbb{R}^{n} (Penalty on an Open Subset of Euclidean Space §regularity), The Gradient of a C^2 Function on Euclidean Space is One-Sided Lipschitz on Bounded Sets with B=DRB=D_{R} gives a nonnegative cRc_{R} with −cR∥x−y∥2≤(DV(x)−DV(y))⋅(x−y)-c_{R}\lVert x-y\rVert^{2}\le(DV(x)-DV(y))\cdot(x-y) for all x,y∈DRx,y\in D_{R}.

Hence all hypotheses of Well-Posedness of the Penalty-Drift Hamilton-Jacobi Equation under a Dissipation Inequality hold, and its claims Well-Posedness of the Penalty-Drift Hamilton-Jacobi Equation under a Dissipation Inequality §comparison and Well-Posedness of the Penalty-Drift Hamilton-Jacobi Equation under a Dissipation Inequality §well-posed are claims 1 and 2.
