On some limit theorems for solutions of stochastic differential equations
We study the regularizing effect of the noise on differential equations with irregular coefficients. We present existence and uniqueness theorems for stochastic differential equations with locally unbounded drift.
Let D be an open convex set in and let F be a Lipschitz operator defined on the space of adapted càdlàg processes. We show that for any adapted process H and any semimartingale Z there exists a unique strong solution of the following stochastic differential equation (SDE) with reflection on the boundary of D: , t ∈ ℝ⁺. Our proofs are based on new a priori estimates for solutions of the deterministic Skorokhod problem.
We study linear stability of solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations with stochastic viscosity. Specifically, we assume that the viscosity is given in the form of a stochastic expansion. Stability analysis requires a solution of the steady-state Navier-Stokes equation and then leads to a generalized eigenvalue problem, from which we wish to characterize the real part of the rightmost eigenvalue. While this can be achieved by Monte Carlo simulation, due to its computational cost we study three surrogates...
