Numerical approximation of singular-degenerate parabolic stochastic partial differential equations

We study a general class of singular degenerate parabolic stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) that include, in particular, the stochastic porous medium equations and the stochastic fast diffusion equation. We propose a fully discrete numerical approximation of the considered SPDEs based on the very weak formulation. By exploiting the monotonicity properties of the proposed formulation we prove the convergence of the numerical approximation towards the unique solution. Furthermore, we construct an implementable finite element scheme for the spatial discretization of the very weak formulation and provide numerical simulations to demonstrate the practicability of the proposed discretization.
