The stochastic model<br />

O is a rectangular domain in Rd , d = 1, 2, 3,<br />

or O is a bounded piecewise smooth convex or a smooth Lipschitz domain<br />

(with ”smooth” boundary)<br />

ν outward normal, ϱ > 0 is a ”diffusion constant”,<br />

f is a polynomial of degree 3 with a positive leading coefficient, such as<br />

f = F ′ where F (u) = (1 − u2 ) 2 is a double equal-well potential,<br />

W is space-time white noise<br />

� � � �<br />

ut = −ϱ∆ ∆u − f (u) + ∆u − f (u) + σ(u) ˙W in O × [0, T ],<br />

u(x, 0) = u0(x) in O,<br />

∂u<br />

∂ν<br />

= ∂∆u<br />

∂ν<br />

= 0 on ∂O × [0, T ],<br />
