The multiplicative-noise correction conjecture for stochastic Burgers discretisations

Let gg be as in the scalar stochastic Burgers equation and let ff be a smooth bounded function with bounded derivatives of all orders. Consider the regularised equation

du=νx2udt+g(u)Dεudt+f(u)dw.du=\nu\,\partial_x^2u\,dt+g(u)D_{\varepsilon}u\,dt+f(u)\,dw.

Multiplicative-noise correction conjecture. As ε0\varepsilon\to0, its solution converges to the solution of

du=νx2udt+g(u)xudt14νg(u)f2(u)dt+f(u)dw.du=\nu\,\partial_x^2u\,dt+g(u)\,\partial_xu\,dt-\frac{1}{4\nu}g'(u)f^2(u)\,dt+f(u)\,dw.

The correction is motivated by the expected local quadratic variation, proportional to f2(u)f^2(u); the source presents the result as an expectation and does not give a proof.
