Abstract: We consider a small random perturbation of the energy functional ${\displaystyle }$ [u]^2_{H^s(Lambda, R^d)} + int_Lambda W(u(x)) dx ${\displaystyle }$ for $sin(0,1),$ where the non-local part $[u{]}_{H^s(Lambda,R^d)}^2$ denotes the total contribution from $Lambdasubset{R}^d$ in the $H^s(R^d)$ Gagliardo semi-norm of $u$ and $W$ is a double well potential. We show that there exists, as $Lambda$ invades $R^d$, for almost all realizations of the random term a minimizer under compact perturbations, which is unique when $d=2$, $sin(frac12,1)$ and when $d=1$, $sin[frac14,1).$ This uniqueness is a consequence of the randomness. When the random term is absent, there are two minimizers which are invariant under translations in space, $u=pm1$.
