Suppression of Singularity in Stochastic Fractional Burgers Equations with Multiplicative Noise

Abstract

Inspired by studies on the regularity of solutions to the fractional Navier-Stokes system and the impact of noise on singularity formation in hydrodynamic models, we investigated these issues within the framework of the fractional 1D Burgers equation. Initially, our research concentrated on the deterministic scenario, where we conducted precise numerical computations to understand the dynamics in both subcritical and supercritical regimes. We utilized a pseudo-spectral approach with automated resolution refinement for discretization in space combined with a hybrid Crank-Nicolson/ Runge-Kutta method for time discretization.We estimated the blow-up time by analyzing the evolution of enstrophy (H1 seminorm) and the width of the analyticity strip. Our findings in the deterministic case highlighted the interplay between dissipative and nonlinear components, leading to distinct dynamics and the formation of shocks and finite-time singularities. In the second part of our study, we explored the fractional Burgers equation under the influence of linear multiplicative noise. To tackle this problem, we employed the Milstein Monte Carlo approach to approximate stochastic effects. Our statistical analysis of stochastic solutions for various noise magnitudes showed that as noise amplitude increases, the distribution of blow-up times becomes more non-Gaussian. Specifically, higher noise levels result in extended mean blow-up time and increase its variability, indicating a regularizing effect of multiplicative noise on the solution. This highlights the crucial role of stochastic perturbations in influencing the behavior of singularities in such systems. Although the trends are rather weak, they nevertheless are consistent with the predictions of the theorem of [41]. However, there is no evidence for a complete elimination of blow-up, which is probably due to the fact that the noise amplitudes considered were not sufficiently large. This highlights the crucial role of stochastic perturbations in influencing the behavior of singularities in such systems.
