We show that a realization of the operator $L=|x|^\alpha\Delta +c|x|^{\alpha-1}\frac{x}{|x|}\cdot\nabla -b|x|^{\alpha-2}$ generates a semigroup in $L^p(\mathbb {R}^N)$ if and only if $D_c=b+(N-2+c)^2/4 > 0$ and…

We develop a detailed regularity theory of $-\Delta +b\cdot\nabla$ in $L^p(\mathbb R^d)$, for a wide class of vector fields. The $L^p$-theory allows us to construct associated strong Feller process in $C_\infty(\mathbb R^d)$. Our starting…

We consider diffusion operator $-\Delta + b \cdot \nabla$ in $\mathbb R^d$, $d \geq 3$, with drift $b$ in a large class of locally unbounded vector fields that can have critical-order singularities. Covering the entire range of admissible…

Let $S$ be the submarkovian semigroup on $L_2({\bf R}^d)$ generated by a self-adjoint, second-order, divergence-form, elliptic operator $H$ with $W^{1,\infty}$ coefficients $c_{kl}$. Further let $\Omega$ be an open subset of ${\bf R}^d$.…

The following version of the Lumer-Phillips is proved: a surjective dissipative operator is m-dissipative and invertible. The result remains true if dissipative linear relations (i.e multivalued operators) are considered. The main purpose…

In this paper, we study vector--valued elliptic operators of the form $\mathcal{L}f:=\mathrm{div}(Q\nabla f)-F\cdot\nabla f+\mathrm{div}(Cf)-Vf$ acting on vector-valued functions $f:\mathbb{R}^d\to\mathbb{R}^m$ and involving coupling at…

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…

The Markov group conjecture, a long-standing open problem in the theory of Markov processes with countable state space, asserts that a strongly continuous Markov semigroup $T = (T_t)_{t \in [0,\infty)}$ on $\ell^1$ has bounded generator if…

Let $L$ be a second order elliptic operator on $R^d$ with a constant diffusion matrix and a dissipative (in a weak sense) drift $b \in L^p_{loc}$ with some $p>d$. We assume that $L$ possesses a Lyapunov function, but no local boundedness of…

We characterize Markov lattice semigroups induced by measurable semiflows on probability spaces by properties of their generators. In addition we construct topological models on compact spaces for such semigroups.

In this paper, we study an elliptic operator in divergence-form but not necessary symmetric. In particular, our results can be applied to elliptic operator $L=\nu\Delta+u(x,t)\cdot\nabla$, where $u(\cdot,t)$ is a time-dependent vector field…

We define a class of not necessarily linear $C_0$-semigroups $(P_t)_{t\geq0}$ on $C_b(E)$ (more generally, on $C_\kappa(E):=\frac1\kappa C_b(E)$, for some bounded function $\kappa$, which is the pointwise limit of a decreasing sequence of…

In this paper we establish generation of analytic strongly continuous semigroup in $L^p$--spaces for the symmetric matrix Schr\"odinger operator $div(Q\nabla u)-Vu$, where, for every $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$, $V(x)=(v_{ij}(x))$ is a semi-definite…

In this paper, we study Markov dynamics on unitary duals of compact quantum groups. We construct such dynamics from characters of quantum groups. Then we show that the dynamics have generators, and we give an explicit formula of the…
