We show that the well-known Langevin equation, modeling the Brownian motion and leading to a Gaussian stationary distribution of the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation, is changed by the smallest multiplicative noise. This leads to a…

We study the ergodic behaviour of a discrete-time process $X$ which is a Markov chain in a stationary random environment. The laws of $X_t$ are shown to converge to a limiting law in (weighted) total variation distance as $t\to\infty$.…
