Abstract

In this paper, we are interested in the approximation of a stochastic generalized Swift-Hohenberg equation with quadratic and cubic nonlinearity by using the natural separation of time-scales near a change of stability. The main results show that the behavior of the SPDE is well approximated by a stochastic ordinary differential equation describing the amplitude of the dominant mode. The cubic and the quadratic nonlinearities lead to cubic nonlinearities of opposite sign. Here we study the interesting case, where both contributions cancel and in the right scaling a quintic nonlinearity emerges in the amplitude equation. Also, we give a brief indication of how the effect of additive degenerate noise (i.e. noise that does not act directly to the dominant mode) might lead to the stabilization of the trivial solution.

Highlights

  • We consider the stochastic generalized Swift-Hohenberg equation (SGSH) in the following form: du = – + ∂x u + νεu + γ u – u dt + με dW, ( )where νε is the control parameter, W is a finite dimensional Wiener process

  • The quadratic term γ u plays an essential role; it was first introduced into the GSH equation mathematically in [ ] in order to model the threshold character of periodic pattern formation

  • In this paper we deal with the case γ and the noise does not act directly to the dominant mode, which is not treated in [ – ]

Summary

Introduction

In this paper we deal with the case and the noise does not act directly to the dominant mode, which is not treated in [ – ] In this case the amplitude equation ( ) loses its cubic nonlinearity term and it becomes a linear equation only. If we consider ( ) with respect to periodic boundary conditions on the interval [ , π], we obtain the stochastic amplitude equation with multiplicative noise and with an additional deterministic linear term, appearing due to noise and nonlinear interaction, in the Stratonovich form:. The main result of this paper is that near a change of stability on a time-scale of order ε– the solution of ( ) is of the type u(t) = εb ε t + error, where b is the solution of the amplitude equation on the slow time-scale db =.
