Speaker: Michael Salins (Boston University)Title: When do SPDEs explode?Abstract:Classic existence and uniqueness theorems for stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) prove that if the forcing terms are globally Lipschitz continuous, then there exists a unique, global solution. In this talk, I describe some of the ways that superlinear deterministic and stochastic forcing terms can combine to either cause or prevent explosion.
