Abstract

In this paper, we study a nonlinear one spatial dimensional stochastic heat equations driven by Gaussian noise: (∂ u )/(∂ t)=(∂2 u )/(∂ x2)+σ(u )W , where W is white in time and has the covariance of a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H∈(\frac 14,\frac 12). We remove a critical and unnatural condition σ(0)=0 previously imposed in a recent paper by Hu, Huang, Lê, Nualart and Tindel. The idea is to work on a weighted space Zλ,Tp for some power decay weight λ(x)=cH(1+|x|2)H-1. We obtain the weak existence of solution. With additional decay conditions on σ we obtain the existence of strong solution and the pathwise uniqueness of the strong solution. The reason to introduce the weight function is that the solution u(t,x) may explode as |x|→ ∞ when the "diffusion coefficient" σ(u) does not satisfy σ(0)=0 regardless of the initial condition. This motivates us to study the exact asympotics of the solution u\rm add(t,x) as t and x go to infinity when σ(u)=1 and when the initial condition u0(x)≡ 0. In particular, we find the exact growth of sup|x|≤ L|u\rm add(t,x)|. Furthermore, we find the sharp growth rate for the Hölder coefficients, namely, sup|x|≤ L \frac| u\rm add(t,x+h)-u\rm add(t,x)||h|β and sup|x|≤ L \frac| u\rm add(t+τ,x)-u\rm add(t,x)|τα. These results are interesting and fundamental themselves.
