%0 Journal Article %T Periodic and invariant measures for stochastic wave equations %A Jong Uhn Kim %J Electronic Journal of Differential Equations %D 2004 %I Texas State University %X We establish the existence of periodic and invariant measures for a semilinear wave equation with random noise. These are counterparts of time-periodic and stationary solutions of a deterministic equation. The key element in our analysis is to prove that the family of probability distributions of a solution is tight. %K Wave equation %K Brownian motion %K periodic measure %K invariant measure %K probability distribution %K tightness. %U http://ejde.math.txstate.edu/Volumes/2004/05/abstr.html
