Carleman Estimate for Stochastic Parabolic Equations and Inverse Stochastic Parabolic Problems (1107.5774v2)
Published 28 Jul 2011 in math.OC and cs.SY
Abstract: In this paper, we establish a global Carleman estimate for stochastic parabolic equations. Based on this estimate, we solve two inverse problems for stochastic parabolic equations. One is concerned with a determination problem of the history of a stochastic heat process through the observation at the final time $T$, for which we obtain a conditional stability estimate. The other is an inverse source problem with observation on the lateral boundary. We derive the uniqueness of the source.
