Insight into Spatially Colored Stochastic Heat Equation: Temporal Fractal Nature of the Solution

Abstract

In this paper, the solution to a spatially colored stochastic heat equation (SHE) is studied. This solution is a random function of time and space. For a fixed point in space, the resulting random function of time has exact, dimension-dependent, global continuity moduli, and laws of the iterated logarithm (LILs). It is obtained that the set of fast points at which LILs fail in this process, and occur infinitely often, is a random fractal, the size of which is evaluated by its Hausdorff dimension. These points of this process are everywhere dense with the power of the continuum almost surely, and their hitting probabilities are determined by the packing dimension dimP(E) of the target set E.
