The non-exponential Schilder-type theorem in Backhoff-Veraguas, Lacker and Tangpi [Ann. Appl. Probab., 30 (2020), pp. 1321-1367] is expressed as a convergence result for path-dependent partial differential equations with appropriate notions of generalized solutions. This entails a non-Markovian counterpart to the vanishing viscosity method.

We show uniqueness of maximal subsolutions for path-dependent viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations related to convex super-quadratic backward stochastic differential equations.

We establish well-posedness for the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation associated to a Bolza problem of the calculus of variations with path-dependent terminal cost. In particular, uniqueness among lower semi-continuous solutions holds and state constraints are admitted.
