The Stochastic Heat Equation and the Contnuum Random Polymer
Summary:
This thesis presents important elements of the theory of Stochastic Partial
Differential Equations. It also presents the construction of a particular
random model through the analysis of the solutions of the stochastic heat
equation and their properties. In Chapter 1 we introduce the KPZ equation. More
specifically we focus on its connection with the stochastic heat equation. In
Chapter 2 we construct the stochastic integrals we use throughout this thesis.
In Chapter 3 we discuss the multiple versions of these integrals. In the next
chapters we discuss the stochastic heat equation in a rigorous way and in
Chapter 4we prove the existence of mild solutions. In Chapter 5 we present a
Large Deviations result which combined with a comparison theorem results in the
proof of the positivity of the solutions of the stochastic heat equation. In
conclusion, in Chapter 5 we construct the continuum random polymer, we prove
many of its properties and we write down the stochastic equation which
satisfies.
