Martingale solutions and Markov selections for stochastic partial differential equations

Abstract

We present a general framework for solving stochastic porous medium equations and stochastic Navier–Stokes equations in the sense of martingale solutions. Following Krylov [N.V. Krylov, The selection of a Markov process from a Markov system of processes, and the construction of quasidiffusion processes, Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR Ser. Mat. 37 (1973) 691–708] and Flandoli–Romito [F. Flandoli, N. Romito, Markov selections for the 3D stochastic Navier–Stokes equations, Probab. Theory Related Fields 140 (2008) 407–458], we also study the existence of Markov selections for stochastic evolution equations in the absence of uniqueness.
