Abstract

We consider a parabolic stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) on [0,1] that is forced with multiplicative space-time white noise with a bounded and Lipschitz diffusion coefficient and a drift coefficient that is locally Lipschitz and satisfies an L log L growth condition. We prove that the SPDE is well posed when the initial data is in L2[0,1]. This solves a strong form of an open problem.
