The heat equation with time-independent multiplicative stable Lévy noise

We study the heat equation with a random potential term. The potential is a one-sided stable noise, with positive jumps, which does not depend on time. To avoid singularities, we define the equation in terms of a construction similar to the Skorokhod integral or Wick product. We give a criterion for existence based on the dimension of the space variable, and the parameter p of the stable noise. Our arguments are different for p<1 and p⩾1.
