Harnack Inequalities and Ergodicity of Stochastic Reaction-Diffusion Equation in $L^p$

Abstract

We derive Harnack inequalities for a stochastic reaction-diffusion equation with dissipative drift driven by additive irregular noise in the $L^p$-space for any $p\ge 2$. These inequalities are utilized to investigate the ergodicity of the corresponding Markov semigroup $(P_t)$. The main ingredient of our method is a coupling by the change of measure. Applying our results to the stochastic reaction-diffusion equation with a super-linear growth drift having a negative leading coefficient, perturbed by a Lipschitz term, indicates that $(P_t)$ possesses a unique and thus ergodic invariant measure in $L^p$ for all $p\ge 2$, which is independent of the Lipschitz term.
