Time-dependent averages of a critical long-range stochastic heat equation

Abstract

We study the time-dependent spatial averages of a critical stochastic partial differential equation, namely the stochastic heat equation in dimension d3d\geq 3 with noise white in time and colored in space with covariance kernel 2\|\cdot\|^{-2}. The solution to this SPDE is a singular measure and was constructed by Mueller and Tribe in [MT04]. We show that the time-dependent spatial averages of this SPDE over a ball of radius RR at time tt have different limits under different space-time scales. In particular, when tR2t\ll R^2, the central limit theorem holds; when t=R2t=R^2, the spatial average is a non-Gaussian random variable; when tR2t\gg R^2, the spatial average becomes extinct.
