Abstract:
In this work we present some new results concerning stochastic partial differential and integro-differential equations (SPDEs and SPIDEs) that appear in non-linear filtering. We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions of SPIDEs, we give a comparison principle and we suggest an approximation scheme for the non-local integral operators. Regarding SPDEs, we use techniques motivated by the work of De Giorgi, Nash, and Moser, in order to derive global and local supremum estimates, and a weak Harnack inequality.

In this thesis we study the existence of stationary solutions for stochastic partial differential equations. We establish a new connection between solutions of backward doubly stochastic differential equations (BDSDEs) on infinite horizon and the stationary solutions of the SPDEs. For this, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the L2ρ (Rd; R1) × L2ρ (Rd; Rd) valued solutions of BDSDEs with Lipschitz nonlinear term on both finite and infinite horizons, so obtain the solutions of initial value problems and the stationary weak solutions (independent of any initial value) of SPDEs.

Abstract:
The general truth that the principle of causality, that is, the future state of a system is independent of its past history, cannot support all the cases under consideration, leads to the introduction of the FDEs. However, the strong need of modelling real life problems, demands the inclusion of stochasticity. Thus, the appearance of the SFDEs (special case of which is the SDDEs) is necessary and definitely unavoidable. It has been almost a century since Langevin's model that the researchers incorporate noise terms into their work. Two of the main research interests are linked with the existen
