Intermittency fronts for space-time fractional stochastic partial differential equations in $(d+1)$ dimensions

Abstract

We consider time fractional stochastic heat type equation $$\partial^\beta_tu_t(x)=-\nu(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} u_t(x)+I^{1-\beta}_t[\sigma(u)\stackrel{\cdot}{W}(t,x)]$$ in $(d+1)$ dimensions, where $\nu>0$, $\beta\in (0,1)$, $\alpha\in (0,2]$, $d<\min\{2,\beta^{-1}\}\a$, $\partial^\beta_t$ is the Caputo fractional derivative, $-(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2} $ is the generator of an isotropic stable process, $\stackrel{\cdot}{W}(t,x)$ is space-time white noise, and $\sigma:\R \to\RR{R}$ is Lipschitz continuous. Mijena and Nane proved in \cite{JebesaAndNane1} that : (i) absolute moments of the solutions of this equation grows exponentially; and (ii) the distances to the origin of the farthest high peaks of those moments grow exactly linearly with time. The last result was proved under the assumptions $\alpha=2$ and $d=1.$ In this paper we extend this result to the case $\alpha=2$ and $d\in\{1,2,3\}.$
