Extract

A basic problem of the theory of Markov processes is to find a semigroup S of operators on the bounded Borel measurable functions on ℝd, such that S is given by a transition function, and

for all f belonging to the domain of a given second-order elliptic differential operator D. A process is constructed from the transition function associated with S, and then one hopes to realize the process as one with continuous paths [2].
