Higher Order Unbounded Rough Drivers

Torstein Nilssen, Jonas Pedersen Vean

We construct a framework for higher order unbounded rough drivers defined by rough paths over vector fields. This allows us to consider a purely Eulerian perspective for rough tran…

Unbounded rough drivers, rough PDEs and applications

Antoine Hocquet, Martina Hofmanova, Torstein Nilssen

A summary of recent contributions in the field of rough partial differential equations is given. For that purpose we rely on the formalism of ``unbounded rough driver''. We present…

On the well-posedness of (nonlinear) rough continuity equations

Lucio Galeati, James-Michael Leahy, Torstein Nilssen

Motivated by applications to fluid dynamics, we study rough differential equations (RDEs) and rough partial differential equations (RPDEs) with non-Lipschitz drifts. We prove well-…

Malliavin Calculus for rough stochastic differential equations

Fabio Bugini, Michele Coghi, Torstein Nilssen

In this work we show that rough stochastic differential equations (RSDEs), as introduced by Friz, Hocquet, and Lê (2021), are Malliavin differentiable. We use this to prove existen…

Scaled quadratic variation for controlled rough paths and parameter estimation of fractional diffusions

James-Michael Leahy, Torstein Nilssen

We introduce the concept of finite -scaled quadratic variation along a sequence of partitions for paths on a given interval. This concept, with historical roots in the study of…

Rough McKean-Vlasov dynamics for robust ensemble Kalman filtering

Michele Coghi, Torstein Nilssen, Nikolas Nüsken +1

Motivated by the challenge of incorporating data into misspecified and multiscale dynamical models, we study a McKean-Vlasov equation that contains the data stream as a common driv…

Solution properties of the incompressible Euler system with rough path advection

Dan Crisan, Darryl D. Holm, James-Michael Leahy +1

The present paper aims to establish the local well-posedness of Euler's fluid equations on geometric rough paths. In particular, we consider the Euler equations for the incompressi…

Random dynamical system generated by the 3D Navier-Stokes equation with rough transport noise

Jorge Cardona, Martina Hofmanova, Torstein Nilssen +1

We consider the Navier-Stokes system in three dimensions perturbed by a transport noise which is sufficiently smooth in space and rough in time. The existence of a weak solution wa…

Geometric rough paths on infinite dimensional spaces

Erlend Grong, Torstein Nilssen, Alexander Schmeding

Similar to ordinary differential equations, rough paths and rough differential equations can be formulated in a Banach space setting. For , we give criteria for whe…

Variational principles for fluid dynamics on rough paths

Dan Crisan, Darryl D. Holm, James-Michael Leahy +1

In this paper, we introduce a new framework for parametrization schemes (PS) in GFD. Using the theory of controlled rough paths, we derive a class of rough geophysical fluid dynami…

Global well-posedness of the 3D Navier--Stokes equations perturbed by a deterministic vector field

Franco Flandoli, Martina Hofmanová, Dejun Luo +1

We are concerned with the problem of global well-posedness of the 3D Navier--Stokes equations on the torus with unitary viscosity. While a full answer to this question seems to be…
