Log-Harnack inequality for reflected SPDEs driven by multiplicative noises and its applications (1805.01169v2)

Abstract: We mainly investigate the log-Harnack inequality for the reflected stochastic partial differential equation driven by multiplicative noises based on the gradient estimate of the associated Markov semigroup. To do it, the penalization method and the comparison principle for stochastic partial differential equations are adopted. As its applications, we also establish the entropy-cost inequality and study some important estimates of the transition density relative to its invariant measure.
