Abstract:
We propose a generalization of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process in 1+1 dimensions which is the product of a temporal Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with a spatial one and has exponentially decaying autocorrelation. The generalized Langevin equation of the process, the corresponding Fokker-Planck equation, and a discrete integral algorithm for numerical simulation are given. The process is an alternative to a recently proposed spatiotemporal correlated model process [J. García-Ojalvo et al., Phys. Rev. A 46, 4670 (1992)] for which we calculate explicitly the hitherto unknown autocorrelation function in real space.

Random Variables
Uppercase letters such as X or Y denote a random variable. Lowercase letters like x or y denote the value of a random variable. If X is a random variable, then X is written in words, and x is given as a number.
For example, let X = the...
