Abstract: It is well-known that a stochastic differential equation (SDE) on a Euclidean space driven by a Brownian motion with Lipschitz coefficients generates a stochastic flow of homeomorphisms. When the coefficients are only locally Lipschitz, then a maximal continuous flow still exists but explosion in finite time may occur. If -- in addition -- the coefficients grow at most linearly, then this flow has the property that for each fixed initial condition x, the solution exists for all times almost surely. If the exceptional set of measure zero can be chosen independently x, then the maximal flow is called {em strongly complete}. The question, whether an SDE with locally Lipschitz continuous coefficients satisfying a linear growth condition is strongly complete was open for many years. In this paper, we construct a 2-dimensional SDE with coefficients which are even bounded (and smooth) and which is {em not} strongly complete thus answering the question in the negative.
