All Questions

My question refers to the yesterday's question (see here) of John Learner and goes as follows: Can we deduce the existence of an ergodic measure if we know that an invariant measure exists, but the ...

Suppose I have a discrete-time Markov Chain (in an infinite dimensional state space $\Omega$) with Markov operator $P$, a linear operator on the space of bounded measurable functions on $\Omega$. (Or ...

In the context of functional inequalities for Markov semigroups $(\mathcal P_t)_{t\ge0}$, what is one denoting by $\nabla\mathcal P_tf$? For example, I've found the following assumption in this paper: ...

Consider the square of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator $$A=[(x-\partial_x)\partial_x]^2=(x-\partial_x)\partial_x (x-\partial_x)\partial_x.$$ We know that $[(x-\partial_x)\partial_x]^2$ cannot be a ...

Is it true that for all continuous time Markov processes on a countable state space $S$, we have all rows of the transition matrix $\mathbf{P}_t$ are distinct for all time $t\in[0,\infty)$ ? This ...

Let $\lambda_k,\mu_k\in\mathbb R_{\ge0}$ $(k\ge1)$ be nonnegative real numbers such that $\sum_{k=1}^\infty k\lambda_k<\infty,$ let $S=\mathbb Z_{\ge0}$ be the nonnegative integers, let $T=\mathbb ...
