We show that processes in this family can be attained as the limit of a sequence of deterministic processes with random initial conditions. Weak convergence in the supremum norm on finite time-intervals is shown. We also establish the convergence of a wide variety of long-term statistics. Our construction provides a rigorous example of how macroscopic stochastic dynamics can be derived from microscopic deterministic dynamics.Constructing stationary Gaussian processes from deterministic processes with random initial conditions
