Superprocesses on ultradistributions

Abstract

Stochastic solutions provide new rigorous results for nonlinear PDE’s and, through its local nongrid nature, are a natural tool for parallel computation. There are two different approaches for the construction of stochastic solutions: McKean’s and superprocesses. In favour of superprocesses is the fact that they handle arbitrary boundary conditions. However, when restricted to measures, superprocesses can only be used to generate solutions for a limited class of nonlinear PDE’s. A new class of superprocesses, namely superprocesses on ultradistributions, is proposed to extend the stochastic solution approach to a wider class of PDE’s.
