We study the asymptotics of Allen–Cahn-type bistable reaction-diffusion equations which are additively perturbed by a stochastic forcing (time white noise). The conclusion is that the long time, large space behavior of the solutions is governed by an interface moving with curvature dependent normal velocity which is additively perturbed by time white noise. The result is global in time and does not require any regularity assumptions on the evolving front. The main tools are (i) the notion of stochastic (pathwise) solution for nonlinear degenerate parabolic equations with multiplicative rough (stochastic) time dependence, which has been developed by the authors, and (ii) the theory of generalized front propagation put forward by the second author and collaborators to establish the onset of moving fronts in the asymptotics of reaction-diffusion equations.
