Functional integral formulas for the wave equation and other hyperbolic PDEs
The Feynman–Kac formula provides a functional (Wiener) integral representation of the solution $u$ to the heat equation
\begin{align*}
\partial_t u &= \frac{1}{2}\Delta_x u,\\
u(0,x) &= ...

Abstract Wiener spaces for pinned processes (e.g., Brownian Bridge)
In introductions to abstract Wiener spaces, the sample paths usually form a Banach space; so, in particular, the sum of two sample paths is a valid sample path and also an element of the Banach space. ...

Onsager-Machlup functional when drift is time-dependent
Let $X(t)$ be a diffusion process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ generated by
\begin{align}
\mathcal{D} = \nabla^2 + \sum_{i=1}^d b_i(x) \frac{\partial}{\partial x_i},
\end{align}
where $b_i(x) \in \mathcal{C}_b^2(...

On the difference between Malliavin derivative and Gross-Sobolev derivative
Let $W=C_0([0,1],\mathbb R^d)$ be the classical Wiener space equipped with $\mu$ the Wiener measure.
If $F:W\to\mathbb R$ is a cylindrical function of the form
\begin{align*}
F(w)=f(W_{t_1}(w),\cdots,...
