Censored stable processes (Q1411604)

A symmetric stable process which is not allowed to jump outside an open subset \(D\) of \(\mathbb{R}^n\) is dealt with and the following problems are considered: boundary behavior in non-smooth open sets, harmonic functions, analysis in special \(C^{t,\beta-1}\) domains, boundary Harnack principle in \(C^{1,1}\) open sets. For one-dimensional processes the Kelvin and the logarithmic transforms are discussed. The appendix contains several auxiliary lemmas on the rotation invariant \(\alpha\)-stable Lévy processes in \(\mathbb{R}^n\) needed in proofs and of independent interest as well. As corollary some new results are obtained for Besov spaces on non-smooth domains.
