Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a substochastic semigroup on $L^1$ obtained through the Kato--Voigt perturbation theorem to be either stochastic or strongly stable. We show how such semigroups are related to piecewise…

In this note we prove some sufficient conditions for ergodicity of a Levy-type process, such that on the test functions the generator of the respective semigroup is of the form $$ Lf(x) = a(x)f'(x) + \int_{\mathbb{R}}{ \left( f(x+u)-f(x)-…
