Abstract
This paper surveys the theory and applications of solutions of the Burgers’ equation with random initial data which are often called statistical solution. It grew out of a series of lectures delivered by the author in the Summer of ′92 at Nagoya University, Japan. It is far from complete and reflects only the author’s own interests. A description of other recent developments can be found in the bibliography provided in the last section.
