Diffusion processes with different diffusion coefficients and absolute continuity
I would first of all like to say that I am an analyst, and so I am familiar with probabilistic methods only on a basic level.
My initial situation is the following. Consider two stochastic ...

On the infinitesimal generator of a 1-dimensional stochastic heat equation: core and explicit form
Denote $E = C([0, 1])$. I am consider a 1-dimensional stochastic heat equation on $h$:
$$\partial_tu(t, x) = \partial_x^2u(t, x) - V'(u(t, x)) + \dot{W}(t, x), \quad\text{ for all } (t, x) \in (0, \...

Parameter estimation for stochastic differential equation from discrete observations
Suppose we have a time-series $x(t_i)$ at discrete times $t_i$ and we want to estimate the parameters of an underlying SDE corresponding to this time-series:
$$dx_t = f(x_t,\theta)dt + \sigma(x_t,\...

total variation distance between two solutions of SDE
Suppose we have two stochastic differential equations with the same initial conditions:
$$d X_t^1= b_1(t,X_t^1)dt + dW_t$$
$$d X_t^2= b_2(t,X_t^2)dt + dW_t,$$
$X_0^1=X_0^2=x_0$; $W_\cdot$ is a ...
