A peculiar two point boundary value problem

Probability 2011-11-10 v1

Abstract

In this paper we consider a one-dimensional diffusion equation on the interval [0,1][0,1] satisfying non-Feller boundary conditions. As a consequence, the initial value Cauchy problem fails to preserve nonnegativity or boundedness. Nonetheless, probability theory plays an interesting role in our analysis and understanding of solutions to this equation.
