Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the existence and uniqueness of variational solutions for a stochastic heat equation in a bounded domain with both additive and laminar multiplicative noise and with a nonlinear dissipative condition on the boundary. Our construction includes, as a particular case, the Signorini-type boundary conditions.

Notes

  1. Recall that from (3) we have

    $$\begin{aligned} \beta _\lambda (u) u \ge \alpha _3 |u|^{m+1} + \alpha _4, \end{aligned}$$

    so we get

    $$\begin{aligned} \beta _\lambda (u) u&= \beta (J_\lambda (u)) J_\lambda (u) - \beta (J_\lambda (u)) [u - J_\lambda (u)] = \beta (J_\lambda (u)) J_\lambda (u) - \lambda |\beta (J_\lambda (u))|^2\\&\ge \alpha _3 |J_\lambda (u)|^{m+1} + \alpha _4 - \lambda |\beta (J_\lambda (u))|^2 \ge \alpha _3 |J_\lambda (u)|^{m+1} + \alpha _4 \end{aligned}$$
