Hypoelliptic heat kernels on infinite-dimensional Heisenberg groups

Probability 2017-06-27 v2

Abstract

We study the law of a hypoelliptic Brownian motion on an infinite-dimensional Heisenberg group based on an abstract Wiener space. We show that the endpoint distribution, which can be seen as a heat kernel measure, is absolutely continuous with respect to a certain product of Gaussian and Lebesgue measures, that the heat kernel is quasi-invariant under translation by the Cameron-Martin subgroup, and that the Radon-Nikodym derivative is Malliavin smooth.
