چکیده
We consider the Cauchy problem in R for a class of semilinear parabolic partial differential equations that arises in some stochastic control problems. We assume that the coefficients are unbounded and locally Lipschitz, not necessarily differentiable, with continuous data and local uniform ellipticity. We construct a classical solution by approximation with linear parabolic equations. The linear equations involved can not be solved with the traditional results. Therefore, we construct a classical solution to the linear Cauchy problem under the same hypotheses on the coefficients for the semilinear equation. Our approach is using stochastic differential equations and parabolic differential equations in bounded domains. Finally, we apply the results to a stochastic optimal consumption problem. Résumé. Nous considérons le problème de Cauchy dans R pour une classe d’équations aux dérivées partielles paraboliques semi linéaires qui se pose dans certains problèmes de contrôle stochastique. Nous supposons que les coefficients ne sont pas bornés et sont localement Lipschitziennes, pas nécessairement différentiables, avec des données continues et ellipticité local uniforme. Nous construisons une solution classique par approximation avec les équations paraboliques linéaires. Les équations linéaires impliquées ne peuvent être résolues avec les résultats traditionnels. Par conséquent, nous construisons une solution classique au problème de Cauchy linéaire sous les mêmes hypothèses sur les coefficients pour l’équation semi-linéaire. Notre approche utilise les équations différentielles stochastiques et les équations différentielles paraboliques dans les domaines bornés. Enfin, nous appliquons les résultats à un problème stochastique de consommation optimale. Introduction In the Theory of Stochastic Control, one of the techniques for studying the value function is the Dynamic Programming Principle and the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations (HJB equations). Generally, HJB equations are nonlinear partial differential equations. In many interesting problems (see e.g. [42], [37], [19], [9], [28], [29] and [39]) the HJB equation can be reduced to an equation of the form

The Cauchy Problem for Semilinear Parabolic Equations in Besov Spaces
In this paper we first give a unified method by introducing the concept of admissible triplets to study local and global Cauchy problems for semi-linear parabolic equations with a general nonlinear term in different Sobolev spaces. In particular, we establish the local well-posedness and small global well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for semi-linear parabolic equations without the homogeneou...
متن کاملDecay and eventual local positivity for biharmonic parabolic equations
We study existence and positivity properties for solutions of Cauchy problems for both linear and semilinear parabolic equations with the biharmonic operator as elliptic principal part. The self-similar kernel of the parabolic operator ∂t + ∆ 2 is a sign changing function and the solution of the evolution problem with a positive initial datum may display almost instantaneous change of sign. We ...

In this paper, the existence and uniqueness of the solution of a nonlinear fully fuzzy implicit integro-differential equation arising in the field of fluid mechanics is investigated. First, an equivalency lemma is presented by which the problem understudy is converted to the two different forms of integral equation depending on the kind of differentiability of the solution. Then...
متن کاملExistence and multiplicity of positive solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic system with nonlinear boundary conditions
This study concerns the existence and multiplicity of positive weak solutions for a class of semilinear elliptic systems with nonlinear boundary conditions. Our results is depending on the local minimization method on the Nehari manifold and some variational techniques. Also, by using Mountain Pass Lemma, we establish the existence of at least one solution with positive energy.
