Sammanfattning
This thesis is concerned with two p-variation type estimators for the parameters _ (diffusivity)
and _2 (noise size) of the stochastic heat equation, proposed by Cialenco and
Huang [3]. The theory of the stochastic heat equation is reviewed. The theory of pvariation
type estimators is reviewed and p-variation type estimators relating to the
stochastic heat equation are introduced. These estimators are investigated numerically.
From the simulation results, it is conjectured that the estimators for _ as well as the
estimators for _2 converge in mean and root mean square with convergence rate 1/2
