Diffusion processes with generators of generalized divergence form

From MaRDI portal





We discuss a certain class of diffusion processes with singular coefficients. Our class contains the class of divergence form. Hence we call it generalized divergence form (G.D.F. in abbreviation). G.D.F. have some applications to problems arising from fluid mechanics. Indeed, the Burgers process [see the author and \textit{S. Kotani}, J. Math. Soc. Japan 37, 275-294 (1985; Zbl 0603.60072)] and the vortex process are of generalized divergence form. Especially the vortex process is an example of generalized divergence form which is not of divergence form. Since the coefficients of these diffusion processes are singular, the construction is not easy. Our results are useful to construct such diffusion processes and also applicable for a homogenization problem.
