On the geometry of diffusion operators and stochastic flows
Linear and affine connections (53B05) Research exposition (monographs, survey articles) pertaining to global analysis (58-02) Riemannian, Finsler and other geometric structures on infinite-dimensional manifolds (58B20) Diffusion processes and stochastic analysis on manifolds (58J65) Stochastic calculus of variations and the Malliavin calculus (60H07) Stochastic ordinary differential equations (aspects of stochastic analysis) (60H10) Stochastic stability in control theory (93E15)
The authors study the concepts of second-order semi-elliptic operators, stochastic differential equations, stochastic flows and Gaussian vector fields with related metric linear connections on tangent bundles and subbundles of tangent bundles. Given a semi-elliptic differential operator on a manifold \(M\), a representation in such called Hörmander form (a sum of square vector fields) gets an extension to an operator on differential forms. In the same way, representing a diffusion process as the one point motion of a stochastic flow determines a semi-group acting on differential forms. Given a regularity condition there is an associated linear connection and adjoint ``semi-connection in term of which the operators can be simply described. Contents: Chapter 1: the construction of linear connections of vector bundles as push forwards of connections on trivial bundles; Chapter 2: the infinitesimal generator given in Hörmander form and its associated stochastic differential equations; Chapter 3: the diffusion coefficient of a stochastic differential equation has a kernel and filter out the ``redundant noise (from the point of view of the one point motion); Chapter 4: applications to analysis in spaces of paths (integration by parts, logarithmic Sobolev inequality); Chapter 5: applications to stability properties of stochastic flows (bounds for moment exponents, moment stability); technical appendices are contained in Chapter 6.
