Convergence to Equilibrium in Free Fokker-Planck Equation With a Double-Well Potential

Résumé

We consider the one-dimensional free Fokker-Planck equation $\frac{\partial \mu_t}{\partial t} = \frac{\partial}{\partial x} \left[ \mu_t \left( \frac12 V' - H\mu_t \right) \right]$, where $H$ denotes the Hilbert transform and $V$ is a particular double-well quartic potential, namely $V(x) = \frac14 x^4 + \frac{c}{2} x^2$, with $-2 \le c < 0$. We prove that the solution $(\mu_t)_{t \ge 0}$ of this PDE converges to the equilibrium measure $\mu_V$ as $t$ goes to infinity, which provides a first result of convergence in a non-convex setting. The proof involves free probability and quadratic differentials techniques.
