We consider locally equi-continuous strongly continuous semigroups on locally convex spaces (X,tau). First, we show that if (X,tau) has the property that weak* compact sets of the dual are equi-continuous, then strong continuity of the…

The paper studies an improved estimate for the rate of convergence for nonlinear homogeneous discrete-time Markov chains. These processes are nonlinear in terms of the distribution law. Hence, the transition kernels are dependent on the…

Let $A$ be a Lebesgue measure space. We interpret measures on $A\times A\times R_+$ as 'maps' from $A$ to $A$, which spread $A$ along itself; their Radon-Nikodym derivatives also are spread. We discuss basic properties of the semigroup of…

We consider the stochastic differential equations of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} dX^ x(t) = \sigma(X(t-)) dL(t) \\ X^ x(0)=x,\quad x\in\mathbb{R}^ d, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $\sigma:\mathbb{R}^ d\to \mathbb{R}^ d$ is…
