Abstract

The paper studies perturbed semilinear parabolic partial (pseudo-) differential equations on σ-finite measure spaces under low smoothness assumptions. We obtain results on existence, uniqueness and regularity. The hypotheses are formulated in terms of the semigroup, regularity is measured by means of abstract potential spaces. Being a priori analytic, our results allow to investigate related stochastic partial differential equations in the almost sure pathwise sense. For example we can study (fractional) semilinear heat equations driven by fractional Brownian noises on metric measure spaces.
