TL;DR
This work analyzes a 1D quadratic Schrödinger equation driven by additive space-time fractional noise, showing that the equation is ill-posed in rough noise regimes and enabling a rigorous renormalization for a critical subrange. By constructing an explicit renormalization via a Da Prato–Debussche-type decomposition and carefully treating the stochastic products as random operators, the authors establish local well-posedness of the renormalized remainder equation and prove convergence of renormalized strong solutions as the noise approximation is refined. The approach separates stochastic and deterministic components pathwise, providing a transparent renormalization scheme with explicitly computable terms $\Lambda^{(n)}$ and $\sigma^{(n)}$, and yielding a limit solution $u$ with a precise regularity description. The results extend the pathwise analysis of stochastic NLS to fractional noise on the torus, highlighting intricate regularity and renormalization phenomena unique to dispersive equations with rough forcing and opening avenues for further study of higher-order expansions and optimal noise-regularity thresholds.
Abstract
The study is devoted to the interpretation and wellposedness of the stochastic NLS model \begin{equation*} (\imath \partial_t-Δ)u=|u|^2+\dot{B}, \quad u_0=0,\quad \quad t\in \mathbb{R}, \ x\in \mathbb{T}, \end{equation*} where $\dot{B}$ stands for a space-time fractional noise with index $H=(H_0,H_1)$ in a subset of $(0,1)^{2}$. We first establish that in the situation where $0<2H_0+H_1\leq 2$, the equation cannot be interpreted in a (classical) functional sense.\\ \indent Our investigations then focus on the rough regime corresponding to the condition $\frac74<2H_0+H_1\leq 2$. In this specific case, we exhibit an \textit{explicit} renormalization procedure allowing to restore the (local) convergence of the approximated solutions. We follow a pathwise-type approach emphasizing the distinction between the stochastic objects at the core of the dynamics and the general deterministic machinery.
