Stochastic Partial Differential Equations and Applications to Hydrodynamics

  • Chapter
Stochastic Analysis and Applications in Physics

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 449))

Abstract

The purpose of these notes is to explain how white noise and related methods can be used to model and describe important random dynamical phenomena. Because of personal interest and activity so far emphasis will be put on stochastic partial differential equations arizing in hydrodynamics, but the methods we give are general and not at all restricted to such equations. In this survey we will concentrate on multidimensional white noise; its construction, methods and applications.
