Crisan, Dan; Otobe, Yoshiki; Peszat, Szymon Inverse problems for stochastic transport equations. (English) Zbl 1322.35172 Inverse Probl. 31, No. 1, Article ID 015005, 20 p. (2015). The authors consider the equations \(\partial_tu=\partial_xu+V(x)u+\dot W\) and \(\partial_tu=\partial_xu+V(x)u+u\dot W\) with an initial condition \(u(0)=u_0\) on \(\mathbb R\), where \(\dot W\) denotes either a temporal or a spatial Wiener process on \(\mathbb R\) and \(V\) is a bounded deterministic function. The objective of the paper is to reconstruct (approximatively) the potential \(V\) from the pair of \(u_0\) and the random path of the solution \(\{u(t,0):t>0\}\). It is proved that a random process \(\hat V_n\) can be constructed from \((u_0,u(\cdot,0))\) such that \(\hat V_n(t)\) converges to \(V(t)\) almost surely at a precise rate. In case of the equation with the additive temporal noise, the potential must have the form \(V(x)=aq(x)\), where \(q\) is either a periodic bounded function or an indicator of an interval \([0,b]\) and \(a\) is an unknown parameter.
