Chaotic Behavior in Differential Equations Driven by a Brownian Motion

Abstract
 

In this talk we present a study on the chaotic behavior of ordinary differential equations with a homoclinic orbit to a dissipative saddle point under an unbounded random forcing driven by a Brownian motion. We prove that, for almost all sample pathes of the Brownian motion in the classical Wiener space, the forced equation admits a topological horseshoe of infinitely many branches. This result is then applied to the randomly forced Duffing equation and the pendulum equation.
