• Do the controllability problems for stochastic ordinary
differential equations(SDEs for short) and stochastic partial
differential equations deserve to be studied?
• Yes. I can find many evidences to support my conclusion.
• I only point out that, in the control theory of deterministic
ODEs and PDEs, both the optimal control problems and the
controllability problems are studied extensively. However, for
the stochastic counterpart, the situation is quite different.

• 2. The stochastic settings lead some useful methods invalid,
for example, the lost of the compact embedding for the state
spaces, i.e., although L2 (Ω; H01 (G )) ⊂ L2 (Ω; L2 (G )), the
embedding is not compact, which violates the compactness
-uniqueness argument. Another example is that the
irregularity of the solution with respect to the time variable,
for example, it is very hard to estimate the time derivative of
the solutions, which is an obstacle to follow the method by
Fernández Cara-Guerrero-Imanuvilov-Puel to study the null
controllability of the stochastic Navier-Stokes equation.

SPDE, whose solution is constituted by two stochastic

When studying the observability problems, people now usually
treat Z as a nonhomogeneous term. It is hard to use the fact
that Z is a part of the solution.
