An analytic approach to stochastic Volterra equations with completely monotone kernels

Abstract

We apply the semigroup setting of Desch and Miller to a class of stochastic integral equations of Volterra type with completely monotone kernels with a multiplicative noise term; the corresponding equation is an infinite dimensional stochastic equation with unbounded diffusion operator that we solve with the semigroup approach of Da Prato and Zabczyk. As a motivation of our results, we study an optimal control problem when the control enters the system together with the noise.
