    Maximal L2L^2 regularity for Dirichlet problems in Hilbert spaces

    Full text link
    We consider the Dirichlet problem λULU=F\lambda U - {\mathcal{L}}U= F in \mathcal{O}, U=0 on O\partial \mathcal{O}. Here FL2(O,μ)F\in L^2(\mathcal{O}, \mu) where μ\mu is a nondegenerate centered Gaussian measure in a Hilbert space XX, L\mathcal{L} is an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator, and O\mathcal{O} is an open set in XX with good boundary. We address the problem whether the weak solution UU belongs to the Sobolev space W2,2(O,μ)W^{2,2}(\mathcal{O}, \mu). It is well known that the question has positive answer if O=X\mathcal{O} = X; if OX\mathcal{O} \neq X we give a sufficient condition in terms of geometric properties of the boundary O\partial \mathcal{O}. The results are quite different with respect to the finite dimensional case, for instance if \mathcal{O} is the ball centered at the origin with radius rr we prove that UW2,2(O,μ)U\in W^{2,2}(\mathcal{O}, \mu) only for small rr

    Existence of the Fomin derivative of the invariant measure of a stochastic reaction--diffusion equation

    Get PDF
    We consider a reaction--diffusion equation perturbed by noise (not necessarily white). We prove existence of the Fomin derivative of the corresponding transition semigroup PtP_t. The main tool is a new estimate for PtDφP_tD\varphi in terms of φL2(H,ν)\|\varphi\|_{L^2(H,\nu)}, where ν\nu is the invariant measure of PtP_t

    Asymptotic behavior of stochastic PDEs with random coefficients

    Get PDF
    We study the long time behavior of the solution of a stochastic PDEs with random coefficients assuming that randomness arises in a different independent scale. We apply the obtained results to 2D- Navier--Stokes equations

    Singular stochastic equations on Hilbert spaces: Harnack inequalities for their transition semigroups

    Get PDF
    We consider stochastic equations in Hilbert spaces with singular drift in the framework of [Da Prato, R\"ockner, PTRF 2002]. We prove a Harnack inequality (in the sense of [Wang, PTRF 1997]) for its transition semigroup and exploit its consequences. In particular, we prove regularizing and ultraboundedness properties of the transition semigroup as well as that the corresponding Kolmogorov operator has at most one infinitesimally invariant measure μ\mu (satisfying some mild integrability conditions). Finally, we prove existence of such a measure μ\mu for non-continuous drifts

    Existence and Uniqueness of Nonnegative Solutions to the Stochastic Porous Media Equation

    Full text link
    One proves that the stochastic porous media equation in 3-D has a unique nonnegative solution for nonnegative initial data in H1(O)H^{-1}(\mathcal O) if the nonlinearity is monotone and has polynomial growth.Comment: 25 page

    Pathwise uniqueness for stochastic reaction-diffusion equations in Banach spaces with an H\"{o}lder drift component

    Full text link
    We prove pathwise uniqueness for an abstract stochastic reaction-diffusion equation in Banach spaces. The drift contains a bounded H\"{o}lder term; in spite of this, due to the space-time white noise it is possible to prove pathwise uniqueness. The proof is based on a detailed analysis of the associated Kolmogorov equation. The model includes examples not covered by the previous works based on Hilbert spaces or concrete SPDEs
