Abstract: We consider the stochastic heat equation of the following form frac{partial}{partial t}u_t(x) = (sL u_t)(x) +b(u_t(x)) + sigma(u_t(x))dot{F}_t(x)quad ext{for}t>0, xin R^d, where sL is the generator of a L'evy process and dotF is a spatially-colored, temporally white, gaussian noise. We will be concerned mainly with the long-term behavior of the mild solution to this stochastic PDE. For the most part, we work under the assumptions that the initial data u0 is a bounded and measurable function and sigma is nonconstant and Lipschitz continuous. In this case, we find conditions under which the preceding stochastic PDE admits a unique solution which is also emph{weakly intermittent}. In addition, we study the same equation in the case that mathcalLu is replaced by its massive/dispersive analogue mathcalLulambdau where lambdainR. Furthermore, we extend our analysis to the case that the initial data u0 is a measure rather than a function. As it turns out, the stochastic PDE in question does not have a mild solution in this case. We circumvent this problem by introducing a new concept of a solution that we call a emph{temperate solution}, and proceed to investigate the existence and uniqueness of a temperate solution. We are able to also give partial insight into the long-time behavior of the temperate solution when it exists and is unique. Finally, we look at the linearized version of our stochastic PDE, that is the case when sigma is identically equal to one [any other constant works also].In this case, we study not only the existence and uniqueness of a solution, but also the regularity of the solution when it exists and is unique.
