Sufficient and necessary criteria for existence of pullback attractors for non-compact random dynamical systems (Q439112): Difference between revisions

The paper develops the notion of continuous cocycles on a separable metric space \(X\) over two parametric spaces extending the previous notions of classical non-autonomous deterministic cocycles as well as random cocycles. The concept of periodic cocycles is also introduced. The concepts of complete orbits, \(\Omega\)-limit sets, pullback absorbing sets, pullback asymptotic compactness and pullback attractors are extended to the cocycles. The main result is the statement and proof of necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of pullback attractors for cocycles. Next, the periodicity of pullback attractors for periodic cocycles is proved under certain conditions. The third key result is the statement and proof of necessary and sufficient conditions for the periodicity of random attractors based on the existence of periodic pullback absorbing sets. These theorems are applied to the cocycles generated by differential equations with deterministic and random forcing terms. In the last part of the paper, the existence of pullback attractors for reaction-diffusion equation in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) is proved with both deterministic and random forcings.
