Abstract: | We discuss a new approximate variational principle for weak KAM theory. The advantage of this approach is that we build both
a minimizing measure and a solution of the generalized eikonal equation at the same time. Furthermore the approximations are
smooth, and so we can derive some interesting formulas upon differentiating the Euler-Lagrange equation. Our method is inspired
by the ”calculus of variations in the sup-norm” ideas of Aronsson, Jensen, Barron and others.
