Exponential mixing for nonlinear Schrödinger equations perturbed by bounded degenerate noise

Abstract

We prove the exponential convergence to a unique invariant measure for locally damped nonlinear Schrödinger equations, perturbed by bounded noise acting on only two Fourier modes. To tackle the lack of smoothing effect, we introduce asymptotic compactness of linearized system to enhance the coupling method. Inspired by [14,33,39], we establish a new criterion for exponential mixing. Elements from global stability, nonlinear smoothing, and geometric control are combined when applying this criterion.
