Abstract

In this paper we study weak solutions for the following type of stochastic differential equation dXt=dWt+b(t,Xt)dt,ts,Xs=x, dX_{t}=dW_{t}+b(t, X_{t})dt, \quad t\ge s, \quad X_{s}=x, where b:[0,)×RdRdb: [0,\infty) \times \mathbb{R}^{d} \to \mathbb{R}^{d} is a measurable drift, W=(Wt)t0W=(W_{t})_{t \ge 0} is a dd-dimensional Brownian motion and (s,x)[0,)×Rd(s,x)\in [0,\infty) \times \mathbb{R}^{d} is the starting point. A solution X=(Xt)tsX=(X_t)_{t \ge s} for the above SDE is called a Brownian motion with time-dependent drift bb starting from (s,x)(s,x). Under the assumption that b|b| belongs to the forward-Kato class FKd1α\mathcal{F} \mathcal{K}_{d-1}^{\alpha} for some α(0,1/2)\alpha \in (0,1/2), we prove that the above SDE has a unique weak solution for every starting point (s,x)[0,)×Rd(s,x)\in [0,\infty) \times \mathbb{R}^{d}.
