On the well-posedness of stochastic partial differential equations with locally Lipschitz coefficients

We consider the stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) (Formula presented), where u = u(t, x) is defined for (t, x) ∈ (0, ∞ ) × R and Ẇ denotes space-time white noise. We prove that this SPDE is well posed solely under the assumptions that the initial condition u(0) is bounded and measurabl...

Description
Summary:We consider the stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) (Formula presented), where u = u(t, x) is defined for (t, x) ∈ (0, ∞ ) × R and Ẇ denotes space-time white noise. We prove that this SPDE is well posed solely under the assumptions that the initial condition u(0) is bounded and measurable, and b and σ are locally Lipschitz continuous functions having at most linear growth with regularly behaved local Lipschitz constants. Our method is based on a truncation argument together with moment bounds and tail estimates of the truncated solution. The novelty of our method is in the pointwise nature of the truncation argument.
