Mixing via controllability for randomly forced nonlinear dissipative PDEs
Abstract
We continue our study of the problem of mixing for a class of PDEs with very degenerate noise. As we established earlier, the uniqueness of stationary measure and its exponential stability in the dual-Lipschitz metric holds under the hypothesis that the unperturbed equation has exactly one globally stable equilibrium point. In this paper, we relax that condition, assuming only global controllability to a given point. It is proved that the uniqueness of a stationary measure and convergence to it are still valid, whereas the rate of convergence is not necessarily exponential. The result is applicable to randomly forced parabolic-type PDEs, provided that the deterministic part of the external force is in general position, ensuring a regular structure for the attractor of the unperturbed problem. The proof uses a new idea that reduces the verification of a stability property to the investigation of a conditional random walk.
