The parabolic Anderson model with heavy-tailed potential
نویسنده
چکیده
The parabolic Anderson model is the Cauchy problem for the heat equation with random potential. It offers a case study for the effects that a random, or irregular, environment can have on a diffusion process. The main focus in the present survey is on phenomena that are due to a highly irregular potential, which we model by a spatially independent, identically distributed random field with heavy tails. Among the effects we discuss are random fluctuations in the growth of the total mass, localisation in the weak and almost sure sense, and ageing. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification.

Weak and almost sure limits for the parabolic Anderson model with heavy tailed potentials
We study the parabolic Anderson problem, i.e., the heat equation ∂tu = ∆u + ξu on (0,∞) × Z d with independent identically distributed random potential {ξ(z) : z ∈ Z} and localised initial condition u(0, x) = 10(x). Our interest is in the long-term behaviour of the random total mass U(t) = Pz u(t, z) of the unique non-negative solution in the case that the distribution of ξ(0) is heavy tailed. ...
متن کاملWeak and Almost Sure Limits for the Parabolic Anderson Model with Heavy Tailed Potentials by Remco
We study the parabolic Anderson problem, that is, the heat equation ∂tu= u+ ξu on (0,∞)×Zd with independent identically distributed random potential {ξ(z) : z ∈ Zd } and localized initial condition u(0, x)= 10(x). Our interest is in the long-term behavior of the random total mass U(t) = ∑ z u(t, z) of the unique nonnegative solution in the case that the distribution of ξ(0) is heavy tailed. For...
متن کاملScreening Effect Due to Heavy Lower Tails in One-dimensional Parabolic Anderson Model
We consider the large-time behavior of the solution u : [0,∞) × Z → [0,∞) to the parabolic Anderson problem ∂tu = κ∆u + ξu with initial data u(0, ·) = 1 and non-positive finite i.i.d. potentials (ξ(z))z∈Z. Unlike in dimensions d ≥ 2, the almost-sure decay rate of u(t, 0) as t → ∞ is not determined solely by the upper tails of ξ(0); too heavy lower tails of ξ(0) accelerate the decay. The interpr...
متن کاملComplete localisation and exponential shape of the parabolic Anderson model with Weibull potential field ∗
We consider the parabolic Anderson model with Weibull potential field, for all values of the Weibull parameter. We prove that the solution is eventually localised at a single site with overwhelming probability (complete localisation) and, moreover, that the solution has exponential shape around the localisation site. We determine the localisation site explicitly, and derive limit formulae for i...
متن کامل4 the Parabolic Anderson Model
This is a survey on the intermittent behavior of the parabolic Anderson model, which is the Cauchy problem for the heat equation with random potential on the lattice Z. We first introduce the model and give heuristic explanations of the long-time behavior of the solution, both in the annealed and the quenched setting for time-independent potentials. We thereby consider examples of potentials st...
