Probabilistic representation of an irregular porous media type equation and related fields
Zusammenfassung: We consider a (generalized) porous media type equation over all of ${\mathbb R}^d$ with $d = 1$, with monotone discontinuous coefficients with linear growth and prove a probabilistic representation of its solution in terms of an associated microscopic diffusion. This equation is motivated by some singular behaviour arising in complex self-organized critical systems. One of the main analytic ingredients of the proof, is a new result on uniqueness of distributional solutions of a linear PDE on ${\mathbb R}1$ with non-continuous coefficients.
This talk is based on a joint work with Ph. Blanchard and M. Röckner. Some new perspectives related with a collaboration with V. Barbu will also be mentioned.
