Abstract:
In this paper, a method for solving parabolic problems on a lattice
will be presented using random walks as an example.
Due to the stochastic properties of random walks,
previously obtained interpolation methods for solving hyperbolic problems
(Fourier transform, V. A. Kotelnikov's theorem)
cannot be applied on lattices.
In this paper, a formal asymptotics of the fundamental solution
of the Cauchy problem and boundary value problems for a parabolic random walk
on a lattice is constructed
based on the representation of the Dirac delta function
as a Gaussian exponential and a special partition of unity.
This solution satisfies the conditions of nonnegativity and norm conservation.
The obtained solution exists in the entire attainability domain
of the random walk in the case of a finite initial condition.
In this case, the asymptotics of the solution of the Cauchy problem
corresponds to a noncompact Lagrangian manifold
such that the projection of its singularity
coincides with the boundary of the attainability domain.
Keywords:formal asymptotics of the fundamental solution, random walks, parabolic problem
on a lattice.
This study was implemented in the framework
of the Basic Research Program at the National Research University
Higher School of Economics (HSE University).
