Random homogenisation of a highly oscillatory singular potential (Q483622): Difference between revisions

A parabolic partial differential equation \(\partial_tu^\varepsilon=\partial^2_xu^\varepsilon+V_\varepsilon u^\varepsilon\) on \(\mathbb R\) with an initial condition \(u^\varepsilon(x,0)=u_0(x)\) is considered. Here, \(V_\varepsilon(x,t)=\varepsilon^{-(1/2+\alpha/4)}V(\varepsilon^{-1}x,\varepsilon^{-\alpha}t)\), where \(V\) is a stationary, centered, continuous random field that is \(C^1\) in the \(x\)-variable, \(\mathbb E(| V(t,x)|^p+|\partial_xV(t,x)|^p)<\infty\) is assumed to hold for every \(p>0\), and the maximal correlation function \(\varrho\) of \(V\) grows at most as \((1+R)^{-q}\) for every \(q>0\). It is proved that \(u^\varepsilon(t,x)\to u(t,x)\) in probability, locally uniformly in \(x\in\mathbb R\) and \(t\geq 0\), as \(\varepsilon\to 0\), provided that \(u_0\in C^{3/2}(\mathbb R)\) is of no more than exponential growth. Here, \(u\) is the solution to \(\partial_tu=\partial^2_xu+\bar Vu\) on \(\mathbb R\) with \(u(x,0)=u_0(x)\) and \(\bar V=2^{-1}\pi^{-1/2}\int_0^\infty t^{-1/2}\bar\Phi(t)\,dt\), \(\bar\Phi(t)=\int_{\mathbb R}\Phi(x,s)\,ds\) and \(\Phi(x,s)=\mathbb E\,V(0,0)V(x,t)\).
