Recently, after the introduction (see [12]) of the so-called pathwise (or functional or Dupire) calculus, various papers have been devoted to study the well-posedness of such kind of equations, both from the point of view of regular solutions (see e.g. [18]) and viscosity solutions (see e.g. [13]), in the case of finite dimensional underlying space. In this paper, motivated by the study of models driven by path dependent stochastic PDE's, we give a first well-posedness result for viscosity solutions of PPDE's when the underlying space is an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. The proof requires a substantial modification of the approach followed in the finite dimensional case. We also observe that, differently from the finite dimensional case, our well-posedness result, even in the Markovian case, apply to equations which cannot be treated, up to now, with the known theory of viscosity solutions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-02-19T17:46:19.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "viscosity solutions", "path-dependent equations", "finite dimensional case", "infinite dimensional hilbert space", "well-posedness result" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
