It is well known that a regular diffusion on an interval $I$ without killing inside is uniquely determined by a canonical scale function $s$ and a canonical speed measure $m$. Note that $s$ is a strictly increasing and continuous function…

The Markov chain approximation of a one-dimensional symmetric diffusion is investigated in this paper. Given an irreducible reflecting diffusion on a closed interval with scale function $s$ and speed measure $m$, the approximating Markov…

A quasidiffusion is by definition a time-changed Brownian motion on certain closed subset of $\mathbb{R}$. The aim of this paper is two-fold. On one hand, we will put forward a generation of quasidiffusion, called skip-free Hunt process, by…

Quasidiffusion is an extension of regular diffusion which can be described as a Feller process on $\mathbb{R}$ with infinitesimal operator $L=\frac{1}{2}D_mD_s$. Here, $s(x) = x$ and $m$ refers to the (not necessarily fully supported) speed…

The Dirichlet form is a generalization of the Laplacian, heavily used in the study of many diffusion-like processes. In this paper we present a nonstandard representation theorem for the Dirichlet form, showing that the usual Dirichlet form…

The main purpose of this paper is to explore the structure of local and regular Dirichlet forms associated with symmetric linear diffusions. Let $(\mathcal{E},\mathcal{F})$ be a regular and local Dirichlet form on $L^2(I,m)$, where $I$ is…

Starting with a transient irreducible diffusion process $X^0$ on a locally compact separable metric space $(D, d)$, one can construct a canonical symmetric reflected diffusion process $\bar X$ on a completion $D^*$ of $(D, d)$ through the…

We prove that there exists a diffusion process whose invariant measure is the three dimensional polymer measure $\nu_\lambda$ for all $\lambda>0$. We follow in part a previous incomplete unpublished work of the first named author with M.…

Roughly speaking, the regular subspace of a Dirichlet form is also a regular Dirichlet form on the same state space. It inherits the same form of original Dirichlet form but possesses a smaller domain. What we are concerned in this paper…

In this short article, we shall study one-dimensional local Dirichlet spaces. One result, which has its independent interest, is to prove that irreducibility implies the uniqueness of symmetrizing measure for right Markov processes. The…

We show that a one-dimensional regular continuous Markov process \(\X\) with scale function \(s\) is a Feller--Dynkin process precisely if the space transformed process \(s (X)\) is a martingale when stopped at the boundaries of its state…

We study diffusion processes driven by a Brownian motion with regular drift in a finite dimension setting. The drift has two components on different time scales, a fast conservative component and a slow dissipative component. Using the…

Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithms have played a significant role in statistics, physics, machine learning and others, and they are the only known general and efficient approach for some high-dimensional problems. The random walk…

Let $E$ be the class of finite (resp. probability) measures absolutely continuous with respect to a $\sigma$-finite Radon measure on a Polish space. We present a criterion on the quasi-regularity of Dirichlet forms on $E$ in terms of upper…

We study diffusion processes and stochastic flows which are time-changed random perturbations of a deterministic flow on a manifold. Using non-symmetric Dirichlet forms and their convergence in a sense close to the Mosco-convergence, we…

The regular Dirichlet extension is the dual concept of regular Dirichlet subspace. The main purpose of this paper is to characterize all the regular Dirichlet extensions of one-dimensional Brownian motion and to explore their structures. It…

The Dirichlet form associated with the intrinsic gradient on Poisson space is known to be quasi-regular on the complete metric space $\ddot\Gamma=$ $\{Z_+$-valued Radon measures on $\IR^d\}$. We show that under mild conditions, the set…

In this paper, we introduce an index which measures the strength of recurrence of symmetric Markov processes, and give some sufficient conditions for recurrence of direct products of symmetric diffusion processes. The index is given by the…

Using the standard tools of Daniell-Stone integrals, Stone-\v{C}ech compactification and Gelfand transform, we discuss how any Dirichlet form defined on a measurable space can be transformed into a regular Dirichlet form on a locally…
