Abstract: The formalism recently introduced in arXiv:1610.08468 allows one to assign a regularity structure, as well as a corresponding "renormalisation group", to any subcritical system of semilinear stochastic PDEs. Under very mild additional assumptions, it was then shown in arXiv:1612.08138 that large classes of driving noises exhibiting the relevant small-scale behaviour can be lifted to such a regularity structure in a robust way, following a renormalisation procedure reminiscent of the BPHZ procedure arising in perturbative QFT. The present work completes this programme by constructing an action of the renormalisation group onto a suitable class of stochastic PDEs which is intertwined with its action on the corresponding space of models. This shows in particular that solutions constructed from the BPHZ lift of a smooth driving noise coincide with the classical solutions of a modified PDE. This yields a very general black box type local existence and stability theorem for a wide class of singular nonlinear SPDEs.


The theory of regularity structures provides existence, stability and approximations of solutions to a wide class of singular semilinear stochastic partial differential equations via a process of regularisation and renormalisation. Yet for each particular equation, there is still quite a work to be done to apply the theory and get the results it yields. In particular, one must i) construct a certain (rich enough) Lie group, ii) prove the convergence of the renormalised models and iii) show coincidence of the solution maps for the modified equation. Whereas the problems i) and ii) have been recently automated (one can just check rather easy conditions for a particular equation instead of solving non-trivial problems), the paper under review deals with a simplification of the remaining problem iii). The authors provide sufficient conditions for a large class of subcritical equations that guarantee that when such equations are suitably renormalised, then the resulting process is again a solution to a modified equation (containing counter-terms that depend on the solution itself in a local way).
