Abstract

In parametrically excited stochastic dynamical systems, spatial structures can form with probability one (clustering) in almost every realization because of rare events occurring with a probability that tends to zero. Such problems occur in hydrodynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, plasma physics, astrophysics, and radiophysics.
