Long Time Behavior of Stochastic Thin Film Equation

Abstract

In this paper we consider a stochastic thin-film equation with a one dimensional Gaussian Stratonovych noise. We establish the existence of non-negative global weak martingale solution, and study its long time asymptotic properties. In particular, we show the solution almost surely converges to the average value of the initial condition. Furthermore, using the regularized equations and adapted entropy functionals, we establish the exponential asymptotic decay of the solution in the uniform norm.
