We develop a direct Lyapunov method for the almost sure open-loop stabilizability and asymptotic stabilizability of controlled degenerate diffusion processes. The infinitesimal decrease condition for a Lyapunov function is a new form of…
A continuation of the joint work by Vadim Gorin and the author, J. Funct. Anal. 270 (2016), 375-418; arXiv:1504.06832. The extended Gelfand-Tsetlin graph, introduced in that paper, is a novel combinatorial object. Its q-boundary is formed…
The existence of Feller semigroups arising in the theory of multidimensional diffusion processes is studied. Unbounded perturbations of elliptic operators (in particular, integro-differential operators) are considered in plane bounded…
For a generalized scale function of standard processes, we characterize it as a unique solution to a Volterra type integral equation. This allows us to extend it to an entire function and to derive a useful identity that we call the…
This work focuses on a class of regime-switching jump diffusion processes, which is a two component Markov processes $(X(t),\Lambda(t))$, where $\Lambda(t)$ is a component representing discrete events taking values in a countably infinite…
In this paper, we investigate stochastic heat equation with sublinear diffusion coefficients. By assuming certain concavity of the diffusion coefficient, we establish non-trivial moment upper bounds and almost sure spatial asymptotic…
This article is devoted to Feller's diffusion equation which arises naturally in probabilities and physics (e.g. wave turbulence theory). If discretized naively, this equation may represent serious numerical difficulties since the diffusion…
This work is devoted to switching diffusions that have two components (a continuous component and a discrete component). Different from the so-called Markovian switching diffusions, in the setup, the discrete component (the switching)…
In this paper I discuss nonlinear parabolic systems that are generalizations of scalar diffusion equations. I show that when potential is a convex function that depends only on the norm of the solution, then bounded weak solutions of these…
This work is an extended version of the paper arXiv:0803.2669v1[math-ph], in which the main results were announced. We consider certain classical diffusion process for a wave function on the phase space. It is shown that at the time of…
We provide a rather explicit formula for the resolvent of a~concatenation of $N$ processes in terms of their exit laws and certain probability measures characterizing the way the processes are concatenated. As an application, we prove an…
By using coupling and Girsanov transformations, the dimension-free Harnack inequality and the strong Feller property are proved for transition semigroups of solutions to a class of stochastic generalized porous media equations. As…
This study explores a Gaussian quasi-likelihood approach for estimating parameters of diffusion processes with Markovian regime switching. Assuming the ergodicity under high-frequency sampling, we will show the asymptotic normality of the…
In this paper we study nonlinear Helmholtz equations with sign-changing diffusion coefficients on bounded domains. The existence of an orthonormal basis of eigenfunctions is established making use of weak T-coercivity theory. All…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a regular semi-Dirichlet form to enjoy a new Feller type property, which we call \emph{weak Feller property}. Our characterization involves potential theoretic as well as probabilistic aspects…
By the method of coupling and Girsanov transformation, Harnack inequalities [F.-Y. Wang, 1997] and strong Feller property are proved for the transition semigroup associated with the multivalued stochastic evolution equation on a Gelfand…
The paper is to study the asymptotic dynamics in nonmonotone comparable almost periodic reaction-diffusion system with Dirichlet boundary condition, which is comparable with uniformly stable strongly order-preserving system. By appealing to…
We study linear time fractional diffusion equations in divergence form of time order less than one. It is merely assumed that the coefficients are measurable and bounded, and that they satisfy a uniform parabolicity condition. As the main…
Let $X$ be the branching particle diffusion corresponding to the operator $Lu+\beta (u^{2}-u)$ on $D\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{d}$ (where $\beta \geq 0$ and $\beta\not\equiv 0$). Let $\lambda_{c}$ denote the generalized principal eigenvalue for…
