Equilibrium fluctuations for lattice gases (Q1406575)

In a previous paper the authors derived a law of large numbers for density, velocity fields and energy in thermal lattice gases, and here they show that a space-time central limit theorem can be obtained under suitable modifications of the fluctuation field. In other words, the fluctuation fields from the equilibrium state converge to a multivariate Gaussian process with a given space-time covariance. The paper focuses on the hydrodynamic limit which provides the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations, and the limit of the fluctuation field is obtained as a colored noise.
