Existence and upper semicontinuity of random attractors for the 2D stochastic convective Brinkman-Forchheimer equations in bounded domains

Abstract: In this work, we discuss the large time behavior of the solutions of the two dimensional stochastic convective Brinkman-Forchheimer (SCBF) equations in bounded domains. Under the functional setting $\V\hookrightarrow\H\hookrightarrow\V'$, where $\H$ and $\V$ are appropriate separable Hilbert spaces and the embedding $\V\hookrightarrow\H$ is compact, we establish the existence of random attractors in $\H$ for the stochastic flow generated by the 2D SCBF equations perturbed by small additive noise. We prove the upper semicontinuity of the random attractors for the 2D SCBF equations in $\H$, when the coefficient of random term approaches zero. Moreover, we obtain the existence of random attractors in a more regular space $\V$, using the pullback flattening property. The existence of random attractors ensures the existence of invariant compact random set and hence we show the existence of an invariant measure for the 2D SCBF equations.
