We consider the top Lyapunov exponent associated to a dissipative linear evolution equation posed on a separable Hilbert or Banach space. In many applications in partial differential equations, such equations are often posed on a scale of nonequivalent spaces mitigating, e.g., integrability (L^p) or differentiability (W^{s,p}). In contrast to finite dimensions, the Lyapunov exponent could a priori depend on the choice of norm used. In this paper we show that under quite general conditions, the Lyapunov exponent of a cocycle of compact linear operators is independent of the norm used. We apply this result to two important problems from fluid mechanics: the enhanced dissipation rate for the advection diffusion equation with ergodic velocity field; and the Lyapunov exponent for the 2d Navier–Stokes equations with stochastic or periodic forcing.more » « less

Abstract Noise-induced order (NIO) is the phenomenon by which the chaotic regime of a deterministic system is destroyed in the presence of noise. In this manuscript, we establish NIO for a natural class of systems of dimension ⩾ 2 consisting of a fiber-contracting skew product a over nonuniformly-expanding one-dimensional system.more » « less

In this paper, we give a quantitative estimate for the first N Lyapunov exponents for random perturbations of a natural class of 2N-dimensional volume-preserving systems exhibiting strong hyperbolicity on a large but noninvariant subset of the phase space. Concrete models covered by our setting include systems of coupled standard maps, in both ‘weak’ and ‘strong’ coupling regimes.more » « less
