Random Set Solutions to Stochastic Wave Equations

This paper is devoted to three topics. First, proving a measurability theorem for multifunctions with values in non-metrizable spaces, which is required to show that solutions to stochastic wave equations with interval parameters are random sets; second, to apply the theorem to wave equations in arbitrary space dimensions; and third, to computing upper and lower probabilities of the values of the solution in the case of one space dimension.

Elliptic PDEs with distributional drift and backward SDEs driven by a c{à}dl{à}g martingale with random terminal time

We introduce a generalized notion of semilinear elliptic partial differential equations where the corresponding second order partial differential operator $L$ has a generalized drift. We investigate existence and uniqueness of generalized solutions of class $C^1$. The generator $L$ is associated with a Markov process $X$ which is the solution of a stochastic differential equation with distributional drift. If the semilinear PDE admits boundary conditions, its solution is naturally associated with a backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) with random terminal time, where the forward process is $X$. Since $X$ is a weak solution of the forward SDE, the BSDE appears naturally to be driven by a martingale. In the paper we also discuss the uniqueness of a BSDE with random terminal time when the driving process is a general c{à}dl{à}g martingale.

Lower bound for the mean square distance between classical and quantum spin correlations

Bell's theorem prevents local Kolmogorov-simulations of the singlet state of two spin-1/2 particles. We derive a positive lower bound for the $L^{2}% $-distance between the quantum mechanical spin singlet anticorrelation function $\cos$ and any of its classical approximants $C$ formed by the stationary autocorrelation functions of mean-square-continuous, $2π$-periodic, $\pm1$-valued, stochastic processes. This bound is given by $\Vert C-\cos\Vert \geq(1-\frac{8}{π^{2}}) /\sqrt{2}\approx0.133\,95.$
