Abstract

We characterize solutions to the homogeneous parabolic p-Laplace equation ut = |∇u|2−p ∆pu = (p − 2)∆∞u + ∆u in terms of an asymptotic mean value property. The results are connected with the analysis of tug-of-war games with noise in which the number of rounds is bounded. The value functions for these game approximate a solution to the PDE above when the parameter that controls the size of the possible steps goes to zero.
