Symmetric Jump Processes and their Heat Kernel Estimates
نویسنده
چکیده
We survey the recent development of the DeGiorgi-Nash-Moser-Aronson type theory for a class of symmetric jump processes (or equivalently, a class of symmetric integro-differential operators). We focus on the sharp two-sided estimates for the transition density functions (or heat kernels) of the processes, a priori Hölder estimate and parabolic Harnack inequalities for their parabolic functions. In contrast to the second order elliptic differential operator case, the methods to establish these properties for symmetric integro-differential operators are mainly probabilistic.

Stability of heat kernel estimates for symmetric jump processes on metric measure spaces
In this paper, we consider symmetric jump processes of mixed-type on metric measure spaces under general volume doubling condition, and establish stability of two-sided heat kernel estimates and heat kernel upper bounds. We obtain their stable equivalent characterizations in terms of the jumping kernels, modifications of cut-off Sobolev inequalities, and the Faber-Krahn inequalities. In particu...
متن کاملGlobal Heat Kernel Estimates for Symmetric Jump Processes
In this paper, we study sharp heat kernel estimates for a large class of symmetric jump-type processes in Rd for all t > 0. A prototype of the processes under consideration are symmetric jump processes on Rd with jumping intensity 1 Φ(|x− y|) Z [α1,α2] c(α, x, y) |x− y|d+α ν(dα), where ν is a probability measure on [α1, α2] ⊂ (0, 2), Φ is an increasing function on [0,∞) with c1e2 β ≤ Φ(r) ≤ c3e...
متن کاملLaws of the Iterated Logarithm for Symmetric Jump Processes
Based on two-sided heat kernel estimates for a class of symmetric jump processes on metric measure spaces, the laws of the iterated logarithm (LILs) for sample paths, local times and ranges are established. In particular, the LILs are obtained for β-stable-like processes on α-sets with β > 0.
متن کاملHeat Kernel Estimates for Truncated Stable-like Processes and Weighted Poincaré Inequality
In this paper, we investigate pure jump symmetric processes in R whose jumping kernel is comparable to the one for truncated rotationally symmetric α-stable process where jumps of size larger than a fixed number κ > 0 is removed. We establish sharp two-sided heat kernel estimate and derive parabolic Harnack principle for such jump-type processes. Moreover, we show that bounded functions that ar...
متن کاملWeighted Poincaré Inequality and Heat Kernel Estimates for Finite Range Jump Processes
It is well-known that there is a deep interplay between analysis and probability theory. For example, for a Markovian infinitesimal generator L, the transition density function p(t, x, y) of the Markov process associated with L (if it exists) is the fundamental solution (or heat kernel) of L. A fundamental problem in analysis and in probability theory is to obtain sharp estimates of p(t, x, y)....
