Diffusions vs elliptic operators with dkp coefficients

I am wondering if there is any literature on the relationship between diffusions and elliptic equations. In particular I am interested in literature concerning operators with Dahlberg–Kenig–Pipher ...

Combination of the Dirichlet and Cauchy problems, find the PDE by which $\mathbb{E}_x M(X_{\tau_D \wedge t})$ is met

$X_t$ is an Itô diffusion process with continuous version, $\mathbb{L}_X$ is its generator. $D$ is a closed set in $\mathbb{R}$. The stopping time $\tau_D$ is the first entry time of $D$, that is $\...

Regularity of Feynman-Kac formula for a simple diffusion

Let consider the diffusion process given by: $$dX_t = \alpha(X_t) dW_t$$ where $\alpha(x) = \alpha_1\mathbf{1}_{x\geq 0} + \alpha_2\mathbf{1}_{x< 0}$ ($\alpha_1,\alpha_2>0$) and $W$ a Wiener ...

Regularity of harmonic functions for a degenerate elliptic operator

This is a question on a degenerate elliptic operator. Let $E$ be a closed unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^d$ centered at the origin. For a positive number $c>0$ and $f \in C^2(E)(:=C^2(\mathbb{R}^d)|_E)$, ...

How to find the PDE for the following transition density

Suppose I have the following two stochastic differential equations ($t\geq 0$) $$dX_t = \mu(X_t)dt + \sigma(X_t)dW_t \ \ \text{ and } \ \ dZ_t =dt,$$ where $X = (X_t)$, $Z = (Z_t).$ Note that $W=(...

Diagonal of Green's Function

I am looking to numerically calulate the diagonal of Green's function. I am interested in Green's functions of elliptic PDEs and in those that arise from stochastic processes (discrete and continuous)....

Principal bundles and Subriemannian Geometry

In sub-Riemannian geometry, one considers manifolds $P$ equipped with a subbundle $\mathcal{H}$ of $TP$, the horizontal distribution. One then has a Riemannian metric only on this distribution $\...

probabilistic interpretation of elliptic equation with mixed boundary condition

I would like to understand the probabilistic interpretation of the following elliptic problem with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions: Let $B := \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^n, \quad \| x \|_2 \leq 1 ...

planar mappings that preserve elliptic measure

Let $D_1$ and $D_2$ be two bounded simply connected Jordan domains in $\mathbb{R}^2$. By Carathéodory's Theorem there exists a homeomorphism $f:\bar{D}_1 \to \bar{D}_2$ such that the restriction $f:...
