We consider a d-dimensional random field that solves a possibly non-linear system of stochastic partial differential equations, such as stochastic heat or wave equations. We present results, obtained in joint works with Davar Khoshnevisan and Eulalia Nualart, and with Marta Sanz-Sole, on upper and lower bounds on the probabilities that the random field visits a deterministic subset of \(\mathbb {R}^d\), in terms, respectively, of Hausdorff measure and Newtonian capacity of the subset. These bounds determine the critical dimension above which points are polar, but do not, in general, determine whether points are polar in the critical dimension. For linear SPDEs, we discuss, based on joint work with Carl Mueller and Yimin Xiao, how the issue of polarity of points can be resolved in the critical dimension. |
