If the drift $b$ is a sufficiently regular function, then it is well-known that any analytically weak solution to this equation is also analytically mild, and vice versa. We extend this result to drifts that are generalized functions, with an appropriate adaptation of the notions of mild and weak solutions. As a corollary of our results, we show that for $b\\in L_p(\\mathbb{R})$, $p\\ge1$, this equation has a unique analytically weak and mild solution, thus extending the classical results of Gy\\\"ongy and Pardoux (1993).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2024-12-17T17:02:34.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60H15", "60H50", "60H17" ], "keywords": [ "stochastic heat equation", "mild solution", "irregular drift", "space-time white noise", "generalized function" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
