Scaling function for the noisy Burgers equation in the soliton approximation

Statistical Mechanics 2014-10-07 v3 Soft Condensed Matter Pattern Formation and Solitons

Abstract

We derive the scaling function for the one dimensional noisy Burgers equation in the two-soliton approximation within the weak noise canonical phase space approach. The result is in agreement with an earlier heuristic expression and exhibits the correct scaling properties. The calculation presents the first step in a many body treatment of the correlations in the Burgers equation.
