On unique extension of time changed reflecting Brownian motions (Q731741)

Let \(D\) be an unbounded unbounded uniform domain in \(\mathbb{R}^d\), \(d\geq 3\) (or, equivalently, \(D\) is an \((\varepsilon, \delta)\) with \(\delta=\infty\), see, for example, [\textit{P. W. Jones}, Acta Math. 147, 71--88 (1981; Zbl 0489.30017), and \textit{J. Väisälä}, Tôhoku Math. J., II. Ser. 40, No.~1, 101--118 (1988; Zbl 0627.30017)]), which has either continuous boundary or is extendable. Then the reflected symmetric Brownian motion \(X\) on \(\overline{D}\) is transient. Further, assuming that \(X\) is transient, there is in some sense unique extension of the the time changed process \(Y\) on \(\overline{D}\) (time changed with respect to the Revuz measure \(1_D(x) m(x)dx\), where \(m\) is strictly positive continuous integrable function) or, equivalently, the associated Dirichlet form \((\mathcal{E}^*, \mathcal{F}^*)\)), with following properties: Under the additional assumption that the space of harmonic functions with finite Dirichlet integral consists of constants only, the Dirichlet \((\mathcal{E}^*, \mathcal{F}^*)\) on \(L_2(\overline{D}^*, m^*)\), where \(\overline{D}^*:=D\cup \{\partial\}\) is the one-point compactification, ad \(m^*\) is the extension of \(m\) to \(\overline{D}^*\) with \(m^*(\partial D\cap \{\partial\})=0\), is recurrent, strongly local, regular Dirichlet form, and the associate process \(Y^*\) has finite lifetime with probability 1; such an extension is unique.
