ABSTRACT

The influence of random factors should often be taken into account in solving problems of mathematical physics. The heat equation with random factors is a classical problem of the parabolic type of mathematical physics. In this paper, the heat equation with random right side is examined. In particular, we give conditions of existence with probability, one classical solutions in the case when the right side is a random field, sample continuous with probability one from the space. Estimation for the distribution of the supremum of solutions of such equations is founded.

Keywords:Cauchy Problem, Heat Equation, Stochastic Process

1. Introduction

The subject of this work is at the intersection of two branches of mathematics: mathematical physics and stochastic processes.

The physical formulation of problems of mathematical physics with random factors was studied by Kampe de Feriet [1] . In the works [2] and [3] , a new approach studying the solutions of partial differential equations with random initial conditions was proposed. The authors investigate the convergence in probability of the sequence of function spaces of partial sums approximating the solution of a problem. The mentioned approach was used in the works [4] -[7] . In the paper [3] , the application of the Fourier method for the homogeneous hyperbolic equation with Gaussian initial conditions is justified. The conditions of the existence of the classical solution of this equation in terms of correlation functions are also studied. Homogeneous hyperbolic equation with random initial conditions from the space is considered in [8] -[11] . The model of a solution of a hyperbolic type equation with random initial conditions was investigated in the papers [12] [13] . There is a study on a boundary-value problem of mathematical physics for the inhomogeneous hyperbolic equation with -subgaussian in right part [8] [14] . The parabolic type equations of Mathematical Physics with random factors of Orlicz spaces have been studied in the papers [15] [16] . Further references can be found in [8] [17] -[21] .

We consider a Cauchy problem for the heat equations with a random right part. We study the inhomogeneous heat equation on a line with a random right part. We consider the right part as a random function of the space. The Gaussian stochastic process with zero mean belongs to [22] . The conditions of existence with probability one of the classical solution of this problem are investigated. For such a problem has been got the estimation for the distribution of the supremum solution.

The paper consists of the introduction and three parts. Section 2 contains necessary definitions and results of the theory of the space. In Section 3, we consider heat equations with random right-hand side. For such problem conditions of existence, with probability one, of classical solution with random right-hand side from the space are found. The estimation for distribution of supremum of this problem has been got in Section 4.
