Very recently there has been proposed a theory of non-differentiable solutions which applies to fully nonlinear PDE systems and extends Viscosity Solutions of Crandall-Ishii-Lions to the general case of maps. It is based on the discovery of an extremality principle which applies to vector fields and leads to a PDE theory within which numerous “solutions” of systems like the Infinity-Laplacian can be rigorously interpreted, while, most importantly, the theory supports flexibility under limit operations, preserving the working philosophy and the main features of the scalar counterpart. In this new context, we will discuss some recent applications to the Aronsson system arising in Calculus of Variations in L-Infinity for maps.
