Macroscaling Limit Theorems for Filtered Spatiotemporal Random Fields

This article addresses the problem of defining a general scaling setting in which Gaussian and non-Gaussian limit distributions of linear random fields can be obtained. The linear random fields considered are defined by the convolution of a Green kernel, satisfying suitable scaling conditions, with a non-linear transformation of a Gaussian centered homogeneous random field. The results derived cover the weak-dependence and strong-dependence cases for such Gaussian random fields. Extension to more general random initial conditions defined, for example, in terms of non-linear transformations of (2)-random fields, is also discussed. For an example, we consider the random fractional diffusion equation. The vectorial version of the limit theorems derived is also formulated, including the limit distribution of the parabolically rescaled solution to the Burgers equation in the cases of weakly and strongly dependent initial potentials.
