Abstract

We study the motion of the hypersurface evolving according to the mean curvature perturbed by , the formal time derivative of the -Wiener process , in a two dimensional bounded domain. Namely, we consider the equation describing the evolution of as a stochastic partial differential equation (SPDE) with a multiplicative noise in the Stratonovich sense, whose inward velocity is determined by , where is the mean curvature and is a function determined from . Already known results in which the noise depends on only time variable is not applicable to our equation. To construct a local solution of the equation describing , we will derive a certain second order quasilinear SPDE with respect to the signed distance function determined from . Then we construct the local solution making use of probabilistic tools and the classical Banach fixed-point theorem on suitable Sobolev spaces.
