Stochastic maximal $L^p$-regularity

Abstract

In this article we prove a maximal $L^p$-regularity result for stochastic convolutions, which extends Krylov's basic mixed $L^p(L^q)$-inequality for the Laplace operator on ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ to large classes of elliptic operators, both on ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ and on bounded domains in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$ with various boundary conditions. Our method of proof is based on McIntosh's $H^{\infty}$-functional calculus, $R$-boundedness techniques and sharp $L^p(L^q)$-square function estimates for stochastic integrals in $L^q$-spaces. Under an additional invertibility assumption on $A$, a maximal space--time $L^p$-regularity result is obtained as well.Comment: Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/10-AOP626 the Annals of Probability (http://www.imstat.org/aop/) by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (http://www.imstat.org
