Abstract

We define a notion of a viscous shock solution of the stochastic Burgers equation that connects "top" and "bottom" spatially stationary solutions of the same equation. Such shocks generally travel in space, but we show that they admit time-invariant measures when viewed in their own reference frames. Under such a measure, the viscous shock is a deterministic function of the bottom and top solutions and the shock location. However, the measure of the bottom and top solutions must be tilted to account for the change of reference frame. We also show a convergence result to these stationary shock solutions from solutions initially connecting two constants, as time goes to infinity.<br />Comment: 30 pages, 2 figures; minor corrections in this version; to appear in Archive for Rational Mechanics and Analysis
