Well-posedness of stochastic evolution equations with Hölder continuous noise

We show existence and pathwise uniqueness of probabilistically strong solutions to a pseudomonotone stochastic evolution problem on a bounded domain $D\subseteq {\mathbb{R}}^d$, $d\in \mathbb{N}$, with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions and random initial data $u_0\in L^2(\mathrm{\Omega };L^2(D))$. The main novelty is the presence of a merely Hölder continuous multiplicative noise term. In order to show the well-posedness, we simultaneously regularize the Hölder noise term by inf-convolution and add a perturbation by a higher order operator to the equation. Using a stochastic compactness argument we may pass to the limit and we obtain first a martingale solution. Then by a pathwise uniqueness argument we get existence of a probabilistically strong solution.
