Abstract: In this work, we introduce a new method to prove the existence and uniqueness of a variational solution to the stochastic nonlinear diffusion equation dX(t)=mdiv[fracablaX(t)|ablaX(t)|]dt+X(t)dW(t)in(0,infty)imesmathcalO, where mathcalO is a bounded and open domain in mathbbRN, Nge1, and W(t) is a Wiener process of the form , and , kinmathbbN, are independent Brownian motions. This is a stochastic diffusion equation with a highly singular diffusivity term and one main result established here is that, for all initial conditions in L2(mathcalO), it is well posed in a class of continuous solutions to the corresponding stochastic variational inequality. Thus one obtains a stochastic version of the (minimal) total variation flow. The new approach developed here also allows to prove the finite time extinction of solutions in dimensions 1leNle3, which is another main result of this work. Keywords: stochastic diffusion equation, Brownian motion, bounded variation, convex functions, bounded variation flow.
