Longtime Behaviour of Stochastic Hamiltonian Systems: The Multidimensional Case

Abstract

Hamiltonian systems perturbed by a white noise force are discussed in several dimensions. By using an appropriate scaling of the stochastic force a convergence theorem for the invariants of the deterministic motion is proved. This corresponds to convergence of the system to a stationary distribution. Especially motion in a central force field is considered; the energy and angular momentum processes are investigated.
