In this article, we consider the one-dimensional stochastic wave and heat equations driven by a linear multiplicative Gaussian noise which is white in time and behaves in space like a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst index H ∈ ( 1 4 , 1). We prove that the solution of each of the above equations is continuous in terms of the index H, with respect to the convergence in law in the space of continuous functions. The proof is based on a tightness criterion on the plane and Malliavin calculus techniques in order to identify the limit law.
MSC 2010: 60B10; 60H07; 60H15At this point, we aim to extend the random fieldW H defined in (9) to an isonormal Gaussian process in H H . We need the following corollary of [5, Thm. 4.3]:Proposition 2.6. The space of finite linear combinations of functions of the form f (r, z) = 1 (s,t]×(x,y] (r, z), with 0 ≤ s < t and x < y, is dense in the Hilbert space H H .Proof. The result is a direct consequence of [5, Thm. 4.3]. Indeed, in the latter paper it is proved that any predictable process {X(t, x), (t, x) ∈ R + × R} belonging to L 2 (Ω; H H ) can be approximated by finite linear combinations of processes of the form (r, z, ω) → 1 G (ω)1 (s,t] (r)1 (x,y] (z), for some G ∈ F. To prove our result, it suffices to observe that, if we choose a deterministic element ϕ in their proof, also its approximating sequence ϕ n is deterministic, and the norm in the space L 2 (Ω; H H ) coincides with the norm in H H for deterministic elements.
