Abstract
We turn now to the investigation of differential equations whose coefficients are random functions (“parametric excitation”). Such equations occur frequently in applications: flutter of aircraft wings in turbulent atmosphere, instruments on shaking ground or shaking suspensions, wave propagation in inhomogeneous media etc. In this connection, the question of stability or instability of the motion is of fundamental importance.
