Abstract

We address spinodal decomposition for the stochastic Cahn-Hilliard equation. Solutions starting at the homogeneous equilibrium $u(0) \equiv 0$ will leave a neighborhood of $0$ along a strongly unstable subspace $X_\epsilon^+$ with high probability. This produces solutions of a characteristic wavelength, as discussed in Maier-Paape, Wanner (1998). All estimates are established for the linearized stochastic equation.
