Mean-square random attractors of stochastic delay differential equations with random delay (Q379010)

The existence of a random attactor is established for a mean-square random dynamical system (MS-RDS) generated by a stochastic delay equation (SDDE) with random delay for which the drift term is dominated by a nondelay component satisfying a one-sided dissipative Lipschitz condition. It is shown by Razumikhin-type techniques that the solution of this SDDE is ultimately bounded in the mean-square sense and that solutions for different initial values converge exponentially together as time increases in the mean-square sense. Consequently, similar boundedness and convergence properties hold for the MS-RDS and imply the existence of a mean-square random attractor for the MS-RDS that consists of a single stochastic process. The main results are of interest to scholars in this field.
