Stochastic Scalar Conservation Laws on Moving Hypersurfaces

arXiv:2607.26564

summary

The paper proves existence, uniqueness, and stability of stochastic scalar conservation laws defined on evolving hypersurfaces, using entropy solutions and stochastic analysis techniques.

Abstract

We establish the well-posedness of stochastic scalar conservation laws on moving hypersurfaces driven by Brownian motion. To handle the interaction between stochastic forcing and evolving geometry, we derive an Itô formula on moving surfaces and introduce the notion of generalized entropy solutions incorporating the relevant stochastic interaction terms. A martingale entropy solution is constructed via the vanishing-viscosity method, based on a uniform -bound in space and time, an -estimate for the spatial gradient, an -continuity estimate in time, and a suitable tightness argument. Pathwise uniqueness is established by adapting Kruzhkov's doubling-of-variables method to moving hypersurfaces, yielding an -contraction property. Finally, together with the Yamada-Watanabe theorem, these results yield the well-posedness of the problem.
