Quenched power-law superdiffusivity — [ABK] Theorem A #

Source: references/algsuperdiff.tex:145-183.

Let nu, gamma and cstar be positive and, for a time t > 0, let

R(t) = ((nu t)^{2-gamma} + cstar gamma⁻¹ t²)^{1/(2(2-gamma))}

be the intrinsic length scale of the model at that time. For a disorder model of strength gamma small enough there are constants gamma0 and C, depending only on the dimension and on the value cstar of the model's nondegeneracy constant, such that for every moment p ∈ [1, C⁻¹ gamma⁻¹ |log gamma|⁻⁶] the diffusion generated by ∇·(nu I + k)∇ started at the origin satisfies two estimates: its mean square displacement at time t is within C (p^{1/2} + |log gamma|^{1/2}) gamma^{1/2} |log gamma|⁴ R(t)² of 2 d R(t)², and its mean displacement has square at most C (p + |log gamma|) gamma |log gamma|⁷ R(t)², both as Lᵖ-norm bounds over the disorder. Equivalently, the raw p-th moments are bounded by the respective amplitudes raised to p. The first estimate is the quantitative statement that the particle spreads like R(t), which is superdiffusive above the crossover time; the second controls its quenched mean displacement.

The process #

The realization of the environment is a sample omega of the model's field, and streamExhaustionTailInput M omega carries the data from which the continuous-path process of that realization is built. Its wholeSpaceProcess is the unique Markov kernel on continuous paths whose finite-dimensional distributions are those of the semigroup represented by the resolvent of nu I + k_omega, so the two estimates speak about that one process and about nothing carried by the construction data.

The two objects the displays name #

Reading of the statement #

Where the two amplitudes come from #

The proof reaches each display through a product of two factors. The first is the moment of the renormalization error of Theorem B evaluated at the random scale m_t at which the particle is confined up to time t; the second is the moment of 3^{2 m_t} itself. Normalizing m_t by its deterministic lower bound makes the random part of the first factor free, so it is the Theorem B amplitude C (p^{1/2} + |log gamma|^{1/2}) gamma^{1/2} |log gamma|³, and the second factor is C |log gamma| R(t)². Their product is the amplitude of the first display, C (p^{1/2} + |log gamma|^{1/2}) gamma^{1/2} |log gamma|⁴ R(t)², and squaring the p-dependent factor gives the second display, C (p + |log gamma|) gamma |log gamma|⁷ R(t)², both as in the paper.

The confinement scale is chosen at least of order |log gamma|^{1/2} R(t). The exit-time estimate at that scale makes the stopping-removal error polynomially small in gamma.
