Abstract: We consider a nonlinear stochastic heat equation partialtu=frac12partialxxu+sigma(u)partialxtW, where partialxtW denotes space-time white noise and sigma:mathbfRomathbfR is Lipschitz continuous. We establish that, at every fixed time t>0, the global behavior of the solution depends in a critical manner on the structure of the initial function u0: under suitable conditions on u0 and sigma, supxinmathbfRut(x) is a.s. finite when u0 has compact support, whereas with probability one, limsup|x|oinftyut(x)/(log|x|)1/6>0 when u0 is bounded uniformly away from zero. This sensitivity to the initial data of the stochastic heat equation is a way to state that the solution to the stochastic heat equation is chaotic at fixed times, well before the onset of intermittency.
