Also the further integration to get R(R()) can be performed analyticallyanalytically.

The picture shows a comparison between the theoretical resultstheoretical results and a numerical numerical simulationsimulation of the stochastic process, i.e. a numerical integration of the Langevin equation.

The numerical simulation is performed starting from the only knowledge of the drift The numerical simulation is performed starting from the only knowledge of the drift coefficient h(x). Therefore, it is completely independent from the theoretical procedure coefficient h(x). Therefore, it is completely independent from the theoretical procedure used to obtain the autocovariance function.used to obtain the autocovariance function.

Divergent Modes I

In order to have correct solutions we need to fulfill the following 3 conditions:

•1)1) |E(x)| is squared-integrable

•2)2) |E(x)| is integrable

•3)3) j(x,t)=0 at infinity (natural boundary conditions)

In S-B onlyonly condition 1)1) is fulfilledfulfilled.

If we apply 2) or 3) then the spectrum is different: there exists a maximal eigenvalue!!!!

2) and 3) should be equivalent.

Since LL11LL22, allora posso avere soddisfatta 2) e non 1)2) e non 1). These are so-called divergent modesdivergent modes.

Se esistono modi divergenti, this methodology can not be applied. In particular, one can not compute the aann coefficients.

The existence of divergent modes strictly depends upon the chosen initial condition.

Relation with our workIn general one could have initial conditions that are LL11 and not L and not L22..

In such case I can not compute the aann coefficients, and therefore the whole procedure fails.
