ItoProcess for stochastic reaction-diffusion equation


I am trying to simulate a stochastic differential equation in time and space, but I'm unsure if this can be done in Mathematica. The sde that I would like to study is:


$$ dN[x,t]=N[x,t](1-N[x,t])dt+\sqrt{N[x,t]}dw+\partial^2_xN[x,t]dt $$


With an exponential decreasing (in space) initial condition N[x,0]=Exp[-|x|]. Is this possible to simulate with ItoProcess?



Thank you, Best, Andrea



Answer



Here's a solution following @acl's suggestion of discretizing in space. I added a diffusion coefficient d and used reflecting boundary conditions.


l = 1.0; (* length of domain *)
nx = 101; (* number of spatial cells *)
dx = l/(nx - 1); (* size of each cell *)
d = 0.1; (* diffusion coefficient *)

eqns = Join[
{\[DifferentialD]n[1][t] == (n[1][t] (1 - n[1][t])

+ d (-n[1][t] + n[2][t])/dx^2) \[DifferentialD]t
+ Sqrt[n[1][t]] \[DifferentialD]w[1][t]},
Table[
\[DifferentialD]n[i][t] == (n[i][t] (1 - n[i][t])
+ d (n[i - 1][t] - 2 n[i][t] + n[i + 1][t])/dx^2) \[DifferentialD]t
+ Sqrt[n[i][t]] \[DifferentialD]w[i][t]
, {i, 2, nx - 1}],
{\[DifferentialD]n[nx][t] == (n[nx][t] (1 - n[nx][t])
+ d (n[nx - 1][t] - n[nx][t])/dx^2) \[DifferentialD]t
+ Sqrt[n[nx][t]] \[DifferentialD]w[nx][t]}

];

noise = Table[w[i] \[Distributed] WienerProcess[0, 0.5], {i, nx}];

unks1 = Table[n[i][t], {i, nx}];
unks2 = Table[n[i], {i, nx}];

ics = Table[Exp[-(i - 1) dx], {i, nx}];

tmax = 1;

dt = 0.0001;
sol = RandomFunction[ItoProcess[
eqns, unks1, {unks2, ics}, t, noise], {0, tmax, dt}]

This give an Function::flpar message, but still runs.

Here's an animation of n[x]:

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...

plotting - Magnifying Glass on a Plot

Although there is a trick in TEX magnifying glass but I want to know is there any function to magnifying glass on a plot with Mathematica ? For example for a function as Sin[x] and at x=Pi/6 Below, this is just a picture desired from the cited site. the image got huge unfortunately I don't know how can I change the size of an image here! Answer Insetting a magnified part of the original Plot A) by adding a new Plot of the specified range xPos = Pi/6; range = 0.2; f = Sin; xyMinMax = {{xPos - range, xPos + range}, {f[xPos] - range*GoldenRatio^-1, f[xPos] + range*GoldenRatio^-1}}; Plot[f[x], {x, 0, 5}, Epilog -> {Transparent, EdgeForm[Thick], Rectangle[Sequence @@ Transpose[xyMinMax]], Inset[Plot[f[x], {x, xPos - range, xPos + range}, Frame -> True, Axes -> False, PlotRange -> xyMinMax, ImageSize -> 270], {4., 0.5}]}, ImageSize -> 700] B) by adding a new Plot within a Circle mf = RegionMember[Disk[{xPos, f[xPos]}, {range, range/GoldenRatio}]] Show...
