Here, the Glauber rates are scaled by $K=K_N$, the Kawasaki rates by $N^2$ and space by $1/N$. We start the process so that the interface $\\Gamma_t$ formed is stationary that is, $\\Gamma_t$ is `flat'. When the Glauber rates are balanced on $T^d$, $\\Gamma_t=\\Gamma=\\{x: x_1=0\\}$ is immobile and the hydrodynamic limit is given by $\\rho(t,v) = \\rho_+$ for $v_1\\in (0,1/2)$ and $\\rho(t,v)= \\rho_-$ for $v_1\\in (-1/2,0)$ for all $t\\ge 0$, where $v=(v_1,\\ldots,v_d)\\in T^d$ identified with $[-1/2,1/2)^d$. Since in the formation the boundary region about the interface has width $O(1/\\sqrt{K_N})$, we will scale the $v_1$ coordinate in the fluctuation field by $\\sqrt{K_N}$ so that the scaling limit will capture information `near' the interface. We identify the fluctuation limit as a Gaussian field when $K_N\\uparrow \\infty$ and $K_N= O(\\sqrt{\\log(N)})$ in $d\\leq 2$. In the one dimensional case, the field limit is given by ${\\bf e}(v_1) B_t$ where $B_t$ is a Brownian motion and ${\\bf e}$ is the normalized derivative of a decreasing `standing wave' solution $\\phi$ of $\\partial^2_{v_1} \\phi - V'(\\phi)=0$ on $R$, where $V'$ is the homogenization of the Glauber rates. In two dimensions, the limit is ${\\bf e}(v_1)Z_t(v_2)$ where $Z_t$ is the solution of a one dimensional stochastic heat equation. The appearance of the function ${\\bf e}(\\cdot)$ in the limit field indicates that the interface fluctuation retains the shape of the transition layer $\\phi$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-12-05T09:51:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "linear fluctuation", "glauber-kawasaki dynamics", "glauber rates", "hydrodynamic mean curvature interface limit", "space-time mass fluctuation field" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
