Abstract: Let M be a compact connected oriented Riemannian manifold. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the long time behavior of a degenerate stochastic differential equation on the state space MimesmathbbRn; which is obtained via a natural change of variable from a self-repelling diffusion taking the form dX_{t}= sigma dB_{t}(X_t) -int_{0}^{t} abla V_{X_s}(X_{t})dsdt,qquad X_{0}=x where Bt is a Brownian vector field on M, sigma>0 and Vx(y)=V(x,y) is a diagonal Mercer kernel. We prove that the induced semi-group enjoys the strong Feller property and has a unique invariant probability mu given as the product of the normalized Riemannian measure on M and a Gaussian measure on mathbbRn. We then prove an exponential decay to this invariant probability in L2(mu) and in total variation.
