Homogenization of stochastic semilinear parabolic equations with non-Lipschitz forcings in domains with fine grained boundaries (Q396519)

The author studies the initial boundary value problem for stochastic partial differential equations of the form \[ du^{(s)} = \Big[ \Delta u^{(s)} + f \Big( t, u^{(s)} \Big) \Big] dt + \sum_{k=1}^d g_k \Big( t, u^{(s)} \Big) dw_t^{(s) k} \;\;\text{ in \(Q_T^{(s)}\),} \] \[ u^{(s)}(t,x) = 0 \;\;\text{ on \(\partial Q_T^{(s)}\),} \] \[ u^{(s)}(0,x) = u_0(x) \;\;\text{ in \(\Omega^{(s)}\).} \] Here \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) with \(n \geq 3\), and \(\Omega^{(s)}\) is a sequence of perforated domains in \(\Omega\). The equations are considered on the cylindrical domain \(Q_T^{(s)} = (0,T) \times \Omega^{(s)}\) with boundary \(\partial Q_T^{(s)} = (0,T) \times \partial \Omega^{(s)}\). The main result of the paper states that under suitable conditions a sequence of weak solutions converges to a solution of the stochastic initial boundary value problem \[ du = [ \Delta u - c(x) u + f ( t, u ) ] dt + \sum_{k=1}^d g_k ( t, u ) dw_t^k \;\;\text{ in \(Q_T\),} \] \[ u(t,x) = 0 \;\;\text{ on \(\partial Q_T\),} \] \[ u(0,x) = u_0(x) \;\;\text{ in \(\Omega\),} \] where \(Q_T = (0,T) \times \Omega\) and \(\partial Q_T = (0,T) \times \partial \Omega\).
