Brownian Motion with Drift on Spaces with Varying Dimension

Abstract

Many properties of Brownian motion on spaces with varying dimension (BMVD in abbreviation) have been explored in [5]. In this paper, we study Brownian motion with drift on spaces with varying dimension (BMVD with drift in abbreviation). Such a process can be conveniently defined by a regular Dirichlet form that is not necessarily symmetric. The drift term is in some type of LpL^{p} space with pp depending on the region of the state space. We show BMVD with drift can be related to a BMVD without drift via Girsanov transform. Through the method of Duhamel's principle, it is established in this paper that the transition density of BMVD with drift has the same type of sharp two-sided Gaussian bounds as that for BMVD (without drift). As a corollary, we derive Green function estimate for BMVD with drift.
