Abstract:
We investigate the behavior of a finite chain of Brownian particles
interacting through a pairwise quadratic potential, with one end of the chain
fixed and the other end pulled away at slow speed, in the limit of slow
speed and small Brownian noise. We study the instant when the chain
“breaks,” that is, the distance between two neighboring particles becomes
larger than a certain limit. In the regime where both the pulling and the
noise significantly influence the behavior of the chain, we prove weak limit
theorems for the break time and the break position.
Keywords:
interacting Brownian particles, stochastic differential equations, Ornstein–Uhlenbeck processes.
