Weak uniqueness of Fokker–Planck equations with degenerate and bounded coefficients
Comptes Rendus. Mathématique, Volume 348 (2010) no. 7-8, pp. 435-438.

In this Note, by using the theory of stochastic differential equations (SDE), we prove uniqueness of measure-valued solutions and Lp-solutions to degenerate second order Fokker–Planck equations under weak conditions on the coefficients. Our uniqueness results are based on the natural connection between Fokker–Planck equations and SDEs.

Dans cette Note, en utilisant la théorie des équations différentielles stochastiques (EDS), nous démontrons l'unicité de solutions Lp et à valeurs mesures pour des équations de Fokker–Planck du second ordre dégénérées, sous des conditions faibles sur les coefficients. Nos résultats d'unicité sont fondés sur le lien naturel existant entre les équations de Fokker–Planck et les EDS.
