Local Martingale Solutions and Pathwise Uniqueness for the Three-dimensional Stochastic Inviscid Primitive Equations

Abstract

We study the stochastic effect on the three-dimensional inviscid primitive equations (PEs, also called the hydrostatic Euler equations). Specifically, we consider a larger class of noises than multiplicative noises, and work in the analytic function space due to the ill-posedness in Sobolev spaces of PEs without horizontal viscosity. Under proper conditions, we prove the local existence of martingale solutions and pathwise uniqueness. By adding vertical viscosity, i.e., considering the hydrostatic Navier-Stokes equations, we can relax the restriction on initial conditions to be only analytic in the horizontal variables with Sobolev regularity in the vertical variable, and allow the transport noise in the vertical direction. We establish the local existence of martingale solutions and pathwise uniqueness, and show that the solutions become analytic in the vertical variable instantaneously as t > 0 and the vertical analytic radius increases as long as the solutions exist.
