In this paper we study the parabolic Anderson equation $\partial u(x,t)/\partial t=\kappa 𝛥u(x,t)+\xi (x,t)u(x,t)$, $x\in {\mathbb{Z}}^d$, $t\ge 0$, where the $u$-field and the $\xi$-field are $ℝ$-valued, $\kappa \in [0,\infty )$ is the diffusion constant, and $𝛥$ is the discrete Laplacian. The $\xi$-field plays the role of athat drives the equation. The initial condition $u(x,0)=u_0\left(x\right)$, $x\in {\mathbb{Z}}^d$, is taken to be non-negative and bounded. The solution of the parabolic Anderson equation describes the evolution of a field of particles performing independent simple random walks with binary branching: particles jump at rate $2d\kappa$, split into two...
