The Burgers equation with Poisson random forcing

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We consider the Burgers equation on the real line with forcing given by Poissonian noise with no periodicity assumption. Under a weak concentration condition on the driving random force, we prove existence and uniqueness of a global solution in a certain class. We describe its basin of attraction that can also be viewed as the main ergodic component for the model. We establish existence and uniqueness of global minimizers associated to the variational principle underlying the dynamics. We also prove the diffusive behavior of the global minimizers on the universal cover in the periodic forcing case.


The author introduces a new kind of random forcing for the Burgers equation on the real line with no periodicity assumption. The forcing potential is given by a homogeneous Poisson measure with a finite spatial intensity measure. As commonly done, particle trajectories for the Burgers equation are identified as action minimizers associated to the variational principle underlying the dynamics. Under the Poissonian forcing, the geometry of solutions is investigated and leads to a tesselation of space-time into domains of influence of forcing points. A piecewise linear global solution is constructed via a limiting procedure seeded at zero initial condition. Then the behavior of the solution is studied at infinity and it is proved that it is a one-point attractor. The case of minimizers for the Burgers equation with spatially periodic Poissonian forcing is also briefly considered and a diffusive behavior is exhibited.
