OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Jointly invariant measures for the KPZ equation with periodic noise
We present an explicit coupling of Brownian bridges plus affine shifts that are jointly invariant for the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation with periodic noise. These are described by Pitman-like transforms of independent Brownian bridges. We obtain these invariant measures by working with a semi-discrete model known as the O’Connell-Yor polymer in a periodic environment. In that setting, the relevant Markov process is described by a system of coupled SDEs. We show how to transform this Markov process to an auxiliary Markov process with a more tractable invariant measure. We discuss connections of this method to works of Ferrari and Martin in the mid 2000s in the context of multi-species particle systems. Furthermore, we present an application of this work to give an explicit formula for the covariance function of a limiting Gaussian process obtained from the coupled stochastic heat equation. Based on forthcoming joint work with Ivan Corwin and Yu Gu.
