Some Remarks on Stabilization by Additive Noise

We review some results on stabilization of solutions to semilinear parabolic PDEs near a change of stability due to additive degenerate noise. Our analysis is based on the rigorous derivation of a stochastic amplitude equation for the dominant mode and on careful estimates on its solution. Furthermore, a few numerical examples which corroborate our theoretical findings are presented.
