Spectrum of an elliptic operator in divergence form with a reflecting boundary condition
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open domain and $v:\Omega\to\mathbb{R}^n$. Consider the following elliptic operator in divergence form, defined on smooth functions $u: \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$
\begin{align}
L ...

Parabolic PDE Long Time Asymptotics and Elliptic Operator Spectrum II
This is a follow-up on a previous question. Now the parabolic PDE of $P(t,x,v)$ has two spatial dimensions.
$$
\partial_t P = L^* P \tag1
$$
$$L^*P = \frac12\left(\kappa^2\frac{\partial^2}{\partial v^...

Parabolic PDE Long Time Asymptotics and Elliptic Operator Spectrum
How does one show directly that the solution following parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) of $p(t,v)$ approaches its stationary solution which is a solution of an elliptic partial ...
