Controllability implies mixing. II: Convergence in the dual-Lipschitz metric (Q2031671)

Summary: This paper continues our study of the interconnection between controllability and mixing properties of random dynamical systems. We begin with an abstract result showing that the approximate controllability to a point and a local stabilisation property imply the uniqueness of a stationary measure and exponential mixing in the dual-Lipschitz metric. This result is then applied to the 2D Navier-Stokes system driven by a random force acting through the boundary. A byproduct of our analysis is the local exponential stabilisation of the boundary-driven Navier-Stokes system by a regular boundary control. For Part I, see [the author, Russ. Math.
