Ergodicity for the Navier-Stokes Equation with Degenerate Random Forcing: Finite-Dimensional Approximation

摘要

We study Galerkin truncations of the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equation under degenerate, large-scale, stochastic forcing. We identify the minimal set of modes that has to be forced in order for the system to be ergodic. Our results rely heavily on the structure of the nonlinearity.
