Abstract

The example of Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equations with a random time-dependent force (stochastic Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equations) is used to show that the theory of Brownian particle motion can be applied to the theory of the stochastic behavior of solitons of model hydrodynamic equations which are completely integrable in the absence of forces and interrelated by the generalized Galilean transformation. The Brownian motion of two-dimensional algebraic solitons of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equations with positive dispersion leads to their diffusion broadening similar to the broadening of one-dimensional solitons of other fully integrable hydrodynamic equations. However, for longer times the rate of decay of algebraic solitons is higher because of the degeneracy of the momentum integral for these solitons. The behavior of a periodic chain of algebraic solitons is established under the action of a random force. Tilted plane solitons of the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equations with negative dispersion vary under the action of a random force similar to the solitons of the Korteweg-de Vries equation. Several of these solitons interact via “virtual solitons” and generate new solitons provided that resonance conditions are satisfied whose dimensions increase as a result of the influence of the random force.
