Abstract
We establish the global existence of weak martingale solutions to the simplified stochastic Ericksen--Leslie system modeling the nematic liquid crystal flow driven by Wiener-type noises on the two-dimensional bounded domains. The construction of solutions is based on the convergence of Ginzburg--Landau approximations. To achieve such a convergence, we first utilize the concentration-cancellation method for the Ericksen stress tensor fields based on a Pohozaev type argument, and second the Skorokhod compactness theorem, which is built upon a uniform energy estimate.
