Abstract

A stochastic variational principle is formulated for the conservative diffusions of stochastic mechanics in terms of the classical action. A suitable class of variations is chosen taking into account the time-reversal invariance of the theory. The resulting equations of motion are the stochastic Euler-Lagrange equations. Moreover a derivation of the Navier-Stokes equation is presented.
