I have learned that for the equation $\partial_tu+a(u)\partial_xu=0$, the entropy solution could be obtained as the limit of the equation $\partial_tu+a(u)\partial_xu=\epsilon u_{xx}$ with $\epsilon>0$ when $\epsilon \rightarrow 0$. When I study the stochastic equation, there is a connect of the stochastic equation with the classical ones.

Suppose $dX=b dt+G dW$ where $W$ is the Brownian motion. And $u(X,t)$ will follow $du=(\partial_t u+\frac{1}{2}G^2 u_{xx}+ b u_x)dt+G u_x dW$. If we take the parameter $G=\epsilon$, $du$ will have the classical solution as $\epsilon \rightarrow 0$. Here how could I prove the uniqueness and convergence of such a process? Here is the limit same with the definition of viscosity solution in the traditional case? Could one provide some references for the viscosity of stochastic differential equations?

I think it easy to generalize the one dimensional case to higher dimension and I want to define the entropy solution with the help of theory of SDEs and to study the shock solution in a similar method.

Thank you!

  • $\begingroup$ Is the function $a$ dependent on $u$ or on $x$ only. In the former case it is not obvious to link it to stochastic differential equations easily as the PDE is not linear and your process $X_t$ will depend on $u$ which is unknown here. If $a$ depends only on $x$ you can represent it via Feyman-Kac and all what you need for the existence of the solution to the SDE equation on $X_t$ is that $a$ is Lipschitzian. $\endgroup$
