Abstract

For H\"older continuous functions W(t,x)W(t,x) and ϕt\phi_t, we define nonlinear integral abW(dt,ϕt)\int_a^b W(dt, \phi_t) in various senses, including It\^o-Skorohod and pathwise. We study their properties and relations. The stochastic flow in a time dependent rough vector field associated with ϕ˙t=(tW)(t,ϕt)\dot \phi_t=(\partial _tW)(t, \phi_t) is also studied and its applications to the transport equation tu(t,x)tW(t,x)u(t,x)=0\partial _t u(t,x)-\partial _t W(t,x)\nabla u(t,x)=0 in rough media is given. The Feynman-Kac solution to the stochastic partial differential equation with random coefficients tu(t,x)+Lu(t,x)+u(t,x)W(t,x)=0\partial _t u(t,x)+Lu(t,x) +u(t,x)W(t,x)=0 are given, where LL is a second order elliptic differential operator with random coefficients (dependent on WW). To establish such formula the main difficulty is the exponential integrability of some nonlinear integrals, which is proved to be true under some mild conditions on the covariance of WW. Along the way, we also obtain an upper bound for increments of stochastic processes on multidimensional rectangles by majorizing measures.
