Stochastic Camassa-Holm equation with convection type noise

Abstract

We consider a stochastic Camassa-Holm equation driven by a one-dimensional Wiener process with a first order differential operator as diffusion coefficient. We prove the existence and uniqueness of local strong solutions of this equation. In order to do so, we transform it into a random quasi-linear partial differential equation and apply Kato's operator theory methods. Some of the results have potential to find applications to other nonlinear stochastic partial differential equations.
