Abstract

In this paper, we study the small noise behaviour of solutions of a non-linear second order Langevin equation xεt +| xεt|β= Zεε t, β∈\mathbb R, driven by symmetric non-Gaussian Lévy processes Zε. This equation describes the dynamics of a one-degree-of-freedom mechanical system subject to non-linear friction and noisy vibrations. For a compound Poisson noise, the process xε on the macroscopic time scale t/ε has a natural interpretation as a non-linear filter which responds to each single jump of the driving process. We prove that a system driven by a general symmetric Lévy noise exhibits essentially the same asymptotic behaviour under the principal condition α+2β<4, where α∈ [0,2] is the ``uniform'' Blumenthal--Getoor index of the family \Zε\ε>0.
