Metastable Behaviour of Small Noise Lévy-Driven Diffusion

چکیده
We consider a dynamical system in R driven by a vector field −U ′, where U is a multi-well potential satisfying some regularity conditions. We perturb this dynamical system by a Lévy noise of small intensity and such that the heaviest tail of its Lévy measure is regularly varying. We show that the perturbed dynamical system exhibits metastable behaviour i.e. on a proper time scale it reminds of a Markov jump process taking values in the local minima of the potential U . Due to the heavy-tail nature of the random perturbation, the results differ strongly from the well studied purely Gaussian case.

Metastable Behaviour of Small Noise Lévy-driven Diffusions
Abstract. We consider a dynamical system in R driven by a vector field −U ′, where U is a multi-well potential satisfying some regularity conditions. We perturb this dynamical system by a Lévy noise of small intensity and such that the heaviest tail of its Lévy measure is regularly varying. We show that the perturbed dynamical system exhibits metastable behaviour i.e. on a proper time scale it ...
متن کاملCONTROL OF CHAOS IN A DRIVEN NON LINEAR DYNAMICAL SYSTEM
We present a numerical study of a one-dimensional version of the Burridge-Knopoff model [16] of N-site chain of spring-blocks with stick-slip dynamics. Our numerical analysis and computer simulations lead to a set of different results corresponding to different boundary conditions. It is shown that we can convert a chaotic behaviour system to a highly ordered and periodic behaviour by making on...
متن کاملSemiclassical analysis and a new result for Poisson - Lévy excursion measures
The Poisson-Lévy excursion measure for the diffusion process with small noise satisfying the Itô equation dXε = b(Xε(t))dt + √ ε dB(t) is studied and the asymptotic behaviour in ε is investigated. The leading order term is obtained exactly and it is shown that at an equilibrium point there are only two possible forms for this term Lévy or Hawkes – Truman. We also compute the next to leading order.
متن کاملVelocity fluctuations of noisy reaction fronts propagating into a metastable state: testing theory in stochastic simulations
The position of a reaction front, propagating into a metastable state, fluctuates because of the shot noise of reactions and diffusion. A recent theory [B. Meerson, P.V. Sasorov, and Y. Kaplan, Phys. Rev. E 84, 011147 (2011)] gave a closed analytic expression for the front diffusion coefficient in the weak noise limit. Here we test this theory in stochastic simulations involving reacting and di...
متن کاملMetastability of the Chafee-Infante Equation with small heavy-tailed Lévy Noise
If equator-to-pole energy transfer by heat diffusion is taken into account, Energy Balance Models turn into reaction-diffusion equations, whose prototype is the (deterministic) Chafee-Infante equation. Its solution has two stable states and several unstable ones on the separating manifold (separatrix) of the stable domains of attraction. We show, that on appropriately reduced domains of attract...
