We generalize Lyons' rough paths theory in order to give a pathwise meaning to some nonlinear infinite-dimensional evolution equation associated to an analytic semigroup and driven by an irregular noise. As an illustration, we discuss a class of linear and nonlinear 1d SPDEs driven by a space--time Gaussian noise with singular space covariance and Brownian time dependence.
We consider infinite-dimensional parabolic rough evolution equations. Using regularizing properties of analytic semigroups we prove global-in-time existence of solutions and investigate random dynamical systems for such equations.
We study controlled differential equations with unbounded drift terms, where the driving paths is $ν$ - Hölder continuous for $ν\in (\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{2})$, so that the rough integral are interpreted in the Gubinelli sense \cite{gubinelli} for controlled rough paths. Similar to the rough differential equations in the sense of Lyons \cite{lyons98} or of Friz-Victoir \cite{friz}, we prove the existence and uniqueness theorem for the solution in the sense of Gubinelli, the continuity on the initial value, and the solution norm estimates.
In this paper, we consider a class of evolution equations driven by finite-dimensional $γ$-Hölder rough paths, where $γ\in(1/3,1/2]$. We prove the global-in-time solutions of rough evolution equations(REEs) in a sutiable space, also obtain that the solutions generate random dynamical systems. Meanwhile, we derive the existence of local unstable manifolds for such equations by a properly discretized Lyapunov-Perron method.
In this paper, we obtain the existence of random attractors for a class of evolution equations driven by a geometric fractional Brownian rough path with Hurst index $H\in(\frac{1}{3},\frac{1}{2}]$ and establish the upper semi-continuity of random attractors $\mathcal{A}_η$ for the approximated systems of the evolution equations.
We extend the validity of a simple method for the existence of a density for stochastic differential equations, first introduced in [DebRom2014], by proving local estimate for the density, existence for the density with summable drift, and by improving the regularity of the density.
We prove existence and uniqueness results for (mild) solutions to some non-linear parabolic evolution equations with a rough forcing term. Our method of proof relies on a careful exploitation of the interplay between the spatial and time regularity of the solution by capitialising some of Kato's ideas in semigroup theory. Classical Young integration theory is then shown to provide a means of interpreting the equation. As an application we consider the three dimensional Navier-Stokes system with a stochastic forcing term arising from a fractional Brownian motion with h > 1/2.
We develop the rough path counterpart of Itô stochastic integration and - differential equations driven by general semimartingales. This significantly enlarges the classes of (Itô / forward) stochastic differential equations treatable with pathwise methods. A number of applications are discussed.
We prove existence and uniqueness of the solution of a one-dimensional rough differential equation driven by a step-2 rough path and reflected at zero. In order to deal with the lack of control of the reflection measure the proof uses some ideas we introduced in a previous work dealing with rough kinetic PDEs [arXiv:1604.00437].
The purpose of this article is to solve rough differential equations with the theory of regularity structures. These new tools recently developed by Martin Hairer for solving semi-linear partial differential stochastic equations were inspired by the rough path theory. We take a pedagogical approach to facilitate the understanding of this new theory. We recover results of the rough path theory with the regularity structure framework. Hence, we show how to formulate a fixed point problem in the abstract space of modelled distributions to solve the rough differential equations. We also give a pro…
We investigate rough differential equations with a time-dependent reflecting lower barrier, where both the driving (rough) path and the barrier itself may have jumps. Assuming the driving signals allow for Young integration, we provide existence, uniqueness and stability results. When the driving signal is a càdlàg $p$-rough path for $p \in [2,3)$, we establish existence to general reflected rough differential equations, as well as uniqueness in the one-dimensional case.
In this paper, we study reflected differential equations driven by continuous paths with finite $p$-variation ($1\le p<2$) and $p$-rough paths ($2\le p<3$) on domains in Euclidean spaces whose boundaries may not be smooth. We define reflected rough differential equations and prove the existence of a solution. Also we discuss the relation between the solution to reflected stochastic differential equation and reflected rough differential equation when the driving process is a Brownian motion.
We prove existence of global solutions for differential equations driven by a geometric rough path under the condition that the vector fields have linear growth. We show by an explicit counter-example that the linear growth condition is not sufficient if the driving rough path is not geometric. This settle a long-standing open question in the theory of rough paths. So in the geometric setting we recover the usual sufficient condition for differential equation. The proof rely on a simple mapping of the differential equation from the Euclidean space to a manifold to obtain a rough differential e…

In this work we study rough differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H>1/4 and establish Varadhan's small time estimates for the density of solutions of such equations under Hormander's type conditions.
Based on the notion of paracontrolled distributions, we provide existence and uniqueness results for rough Volterra equations of convolution type with potentially singular kernels and driven by the newly introduced class of convolutional rough paths. The existence of such rough paths above a wide class of stochastic processes including the fractional Brownian motion is shown. As applications we consider various types of rough and stochastic (partial) differential equations such as rough differential equations with delay, stochastic Volterra equations driven by Gaussian processes and moving ave…
We investigate mild solutions for stochastic evolution equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion (fBm) with Hurst parameter H in (1/3, 1/2] in infinite-dimensional Banach spaces. Using elements from rough paths theory we introduce an appropriate integral with respect to the fBm. This allows us to solve pathwise our stochastic evolution equation in a suitable function space.
We investigate the abstract Cauchy problem for a quasilinear parabolic equation in a Banach space of the form \( du_t -L_t(u_t)u_t dt = N_t(u_t)dt + F(u_t)\cdot d\mathbf X_t \), where \( \mathbf X\) is a \( γ\)-Hölder rough path for \( γ\in(1/3,1/2)\). We explore the mild formulation that combines functional analysis techniques and controlled rough paths theory which entail the local well-posedness of such equations. We apply our results to the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert and Shigesada-Kawasaki-Teramoto equation. In this framework we obtain a random dynamical system associated to the La…
This article introduces the splitting method to systems responding to rough paths as external stimuli. The focus is on nonlinear partial differential equations with rough noise but we also cover rough differential equations. Applications to stochastic partial differential equations arising in control theory and nonlinear filtering are given.
In this paper we study rough differential equations driven by Gaussian rough paths from the viewpoint of Malliavin calculus. Under mild assumptions on coefficient vector fields and underlying Gaussian processes, we prove that solutions at a fixed time is smooth in the sense of Malliavin calculus. Examples of Gaussian processes include fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter larger than $1/4$.
We propose a quantitative direct method of proving the stability result for Gaussian rough differential equations in the sense of Gubinelli \cite{gubinelli}. Under the strongly dissipative assumption of the drift coefficient function, we prove that the trivial solution of the system under small noise is exponentially stable.

We define and solve Volterra equations driven by an irregular signal, by means of a variant of the rough path theory allowing to handle generalized integrals weighted by an exponential coefficient. The results are applied to the fractional Brownian motion with Hurst coefficient greater than 1/3
The solution of rough differential equation, driven by the Itô signature of a continuous local martingale, exists uniquely a.s. when the vector field is Lip(β) for β> 1, and coincides a.s. with the Itô signature of the solution of parallel stochastic differential equation. Moreover, the Itô solution can be recovered pathwisely by concatenating discounted Stratonovich solutions.
This paper is devoted to the study of numerical approximation schemes for a class of parabolic equations on (0, 1) perturbed by a non-linear rough signal. It is the continuation of [8, 7], where the existence and uniqueness of a solution has been established. The approach combines rough paths methods with standard considerations on discretizing stochastic PDEs. The results apply to a geometric 2-rough path, which covers the case of the multidimensional fractional Brownian motion with Hurst index H \textgreater{} 1/3.
In this note we introduce a new approach to rough and stochastic partial differential equations (RPDEs and SPDEs): we consider general Banach spaces as state spaces and -- for the sake of simiplicity -- finite dimensional sources of noise, either rough or stochastic. By means of a time-dependent transformation of state space and rough path theory we are able to construct unique solutions of the respective R- and SPDEs. As a consequence of our construction we can apply the pool of results of rough path theory, in particular we obtain strong and weak numerical schemes of high order converging to…
In this article, we illustrate the flexibility of the algebraic integration formalism introduced by M. Gubinelli (2004), by establishing an existence and uniqueness result for delay equations driven by rough paths. We then apply our results to the case where the driving path is a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H>1/3.
We construct solutions to Burgers type equations perturbed by a multiplicative space-time white noise in one space dimension. Due to the roughness of the driving noise, solutions are not regular enough to be amenable to classical methods. We use the theory of controlled rough paths to give a meaning to the spatial integrals involved in the definition of a weak solution. Subject to the choice of the correct reference rough path, we prove unique solvability for the equation and we show that our solutions are stable under smooth approximations of the driving noise.
We prove well-posedness and rough path stability of a class of linear and semi-linear rough PDE's on $\mathbb{R}^d$ using the variational approach. This includes well-posedness of (possibly degenerate) linear rough PDE's in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^d)$, and then -- based on a new method -- energy estimates for non-degenerate linear rough PDE's. We accomplish this by controlling the energy in a properly chosen weighted $L^2$-space, where the weight is given as a solution of an associated backward equation. These estimates then allow us to extend well-posedness for linear rough PDE's to semi-linear pertu…
We survey existing results concerning the study in small times of the density of the solution of a rough differential equation driven by fractional Brownian motions. We also slightly improve existing results and discuss some possible applications to mathematical finance.
We establish the existence of solutions to path-dependent rough differential equations with non-anticipative coefficients. Regularity assumptions on the coefficients are formulated in terms of horizontal and vertical derivatives.
Backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) in the sense of Pardoux-Peng [Backward stochastic differential equations and quasilinear parabolic partial differential equations, Lecture Notes in Control and Inform. Sci., 176, 200--217, 1992] provide a non-Markovian extension to certain classes of non-linear partial differential equations; the non-linearity is expressed in the so-called driver of the BSDE. Our aim is to deal with drivers which have very little regularity in time. To this end we establish continuity of BSDE solutions with respect to rough path metrics in the sense of Lyons […
In 1990, in Itô's stochastic calculus framework, Aubin and Da Prato established a necessary and sufficient condition of invariance of a nonempty compact or convex subset $C$ of $\mathbb R^d$ ($d\in\mathbb N^*$) for stochastic differential equations (SDE) driven by a Brownian motion. In Lyons rough paths framework, this paper deals with an extension of Aubin and Da Prato's results to rough differential equations. A comparison theorem is provided, and the special case of differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion is detailed.
In this paper, we establish the theory of nonlinear rough paths. We give the definition of nonlinear rough paths, and develop the integrals. Then, we study differential equations driven by nonlinear rough paths. Afterwards, we compare the nonlinear rough paths and classic theory of linear rough paths. Finally, we apply this theory to rough partial differential equations.
We consider a rough differential equation indexed by a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$. When the rough differential equation is driven by fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H$ ($1/4<H<1/2$), we prove the Laplace-type asymptotics for the solution as the parameter $\varepsilon$ tends to zero.
We consider the stochastic continuity equation perturbed by a fractional Brownian motion and the drift is allowed to be discontinuous. We show that for almost all paths of the fractional Brownian motion there exists a solution to the equation.
In this work we study the smoothing effect of rough differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion with parameter $H>1/4$. The regularization estimates we obtain generalize to the fractional Brownian motion previous results by Kusuoka and Stroock and can be seen as a quantitative version of the existence of smooth densities under Hörmander's type conditions.
We study linear rough partial differential equations in the setting of [Friz and Hairer, Springer, 2014, Chapter 12]. More precisely, we consider a linear parabolic partial differential equation driven by a deterministic rough path $\mathbf{W}$ of Hölder regularity $α$ with $1/3 < α \le 1/2$. Based on a stochastic representation of the solution of the rough partial differential equation, we propose a regression Monte Carlo algorithm for spatio-temporal approximation of the solution. We provide a full convergence analysis of the proposed approximation method which essentially relies on the new …
Based on the recent development of the framework of Volterra rough paths, we consider here the probabilistic construction of the Volterra rough path associated to the fractional Brownian motion with $H>\frac{1}{2}$ and for the standard Brownian motion. The Volterra kernel $k(t,s)$ is allowed to be singular, and behaving similar to $|t-s|^{-γ}$ for some $γ\geq 0$. The construction is done in both the Stratonovich and Itô sense. It is based on a modified Garsia-Rodemich-Romsey lemma which has an interest in its own right, as well as tools from Malliavin calculus. A discussion of challenges and p…
We consider finite dimensional rough differential equations driven by centered Gaussian processes. Combining Malliavin calculus, rough paths techniques and interpolation inequalities, we establish upper bounds on the density of the corresponding solution for any fixed time $t>0$. In addition, we provide Varadhan estimates for the asymptotic behavior of the density for small noise. The emphasis is on working with general Gaussian processes with covariance function satisfying suitable abstract, checkable conditions.
Malliavin Calculus is about Sobolev-type regularity of functionals on Wiener space, the main example being the Ito map obtained by solving stochastic differential equations. Rough path analysis is about strong regularity of solution to (possibly stochastic) differential equations. We combine arguments of both theories and discuss existence of a density for solutions to stochastic differential equations driven by a general class of non-degenerate Gaussian processes, including processes with sample path regularity worse than Brownian motion.
Integrability properties of (classical, linear, linear growth) rough differential equations (RDEs) are considered, the Jacobian of the RDE flow driven by Gaussian signals being a motivating example. We revisit and extend some recent ground-breaking work of Cass-Litterer-Lyons in this regard; as by-product, we obtain a user-friendly "transitivity property" of such integrability estimates. We also consider rough integrals; as a novel application, uniform Weibull tail estimates for a class of (random) rough integrals are obtained. A concrete example arises from the stochastic heat-equation, spati…
We introduce a new technique for studying well posedness and energy estimates for evolution equations with a rough transport term. The technique is based on finding suitable space-time weight functions for the equations at hand. As an example we study the well posedness of the generalized viscous Burgers equation perturbed by a rough path transport noise.
Due to recent developments of Malliavin calculus for rough differential equations, it is now known that, under natural assumptions, the law of a unique solution at a fixed time has a smooth density function. Therefore, it is quite natural to ask whether or when the density is strictly positive. In this paper we study this problem from the viewpoint of Aida-Kusuoka-Stroock's general theory.
