Large time asymptotics for the parabolic Anderson model driven by spatially correlated noise

Abstract

In this paper we study the linear stochastic heat equation, also known as parabolic Anderson model, in multidimension driven by a Gaussian noise which is white in time and it has a correlated spatial covariance. Examples of such covariance include the Riesz kernel in any dimension and the covariance of the fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H(14,12]H\in (\frac 14, \frac 12] in dimension one. First we establish the existence of a unique mild solution and we derive a Feynman-Kac formula for its moments using a family of independent Brownian bridges and assuming a general integrability condition on the initial data. In the second part of the paper we compute Lyapunov exponents, lower and upper exponential growth indices in terms of a variational quantity. The last part of the paper is devoted to study the phase transition property of the Anderson model.
