Correlation-length bounds, and estimates for intermittent islands in parabolic SPDEs∗

چکیده
We consider the nonlinear stochastic heat equation in one dimension. Under some conditions on the nonlinearity, we show that the "peaks" of the solution are rare, almost fractal like. We also provide an upper bound on the length of the "islands", the regions of large values. These results are obtained by analyzing the correlation length of the solution.

Some a Priori Error Estimates for Finite Element Approximations of Elliptic and Parabolic Linear Stochastic Partial Differential Equations
We study some theoretical aspects of Legendre polynomial chaos based finite element approximations of elliptic and parabolic linear stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) and provide a priori error estimates in tensor product Sobolev spaces that hold under appropriate regularity assumptions. Our analysis takes place in the setting of finitedimensional noise, where the SPDE coefficien...
متن کاملMultiscale expansion of invariant measures for SPDEs
We derive the first two terms in an ε-expansion for the invariant measure of a class of semilinear parabolic SPDEs near a change of stability, when the noise strength and the linear instability are of comparable order ε. This result gives insight into the stochastic bifurcation and allows to rigorously approximate correlation functions. The error between the approximate and the true invariant m...
متن کاملSharp estimates for metastable lifetimes in parabolic SPDEs: Kramers' law and beyond
We prove a Kramers-type law for metastable transition times for a class of onedimensional parabolic stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) with bistable potential. The expected transition time between local minima of the potential energy depends exponentially on the energy barrier to overcome, with an explicit prefactor related to functional determinants. Our results cover situations...
متن کاملParabolic SPDEs degenerating on the boundary of non-smooth domain
Degenerate stochastic partial differential equations of divergence and non-divergence forms are considered in non-smooth domains. Existence and uniqueness results are given in weighted Sobolev spaces, and Hölder estimates of the solutions are presented
متن کاملBackward Uniqueness and the Existence of the Spectral Limit for Some Parabolic Spdes
ABSTRACT. The aim of this article is to study the asymptotic behaviour for large times of solutions to a certain class of stochastic partial differential equations of parabolic type. In particular, we will prove the backward uniqueness result and the existence of the spectral limit for abstract SPDEs and then show how these results can be applied to some concrete linear and nonlinear SPDEs. For...
