Probabilistic representations of solutions of elliptic boundary value problem and non-symmetric semigroups

In this paper, we use a probabilistic approach to show that there exists a unique, bounded continuous solution to the Dirichlet boundary value problem for a general class of second order non-symmetric elliptic operators $L$ with singular coefficients, which does not necessarily have the maximum principle. The theory of Dirichlet forms and heat kernel estimates play a crucial role in our approach. A probabilistic representation of the non-symmetric semigroup $\{T_t\}_{t\ge 0}$ generated by $L$ is also given.

Stochastic Calculus for Markov Processes Associated with Semi-Dirichlet Forms

Let $(\mathcal{E},D(\mathcal{E}))$ be a quasi-regular semi-Dirichlet form and $(X_t)_{t\geq0}$ be the associated Markov process. For $u\in D(\mathcal{E})_{loc}$, denote $A_t^{[u]}:=\tilde{u}(X_{t})-\tilde{u}(X_{0})$ and $F^{[u]}_t:=\sum_{0 1\}}$, where $\tilde{u}$ is a quasi-continuous version of $u$. We show that there exist a unique locally square integrable martingale additive functional $Y^{[u]}$ and a unique continuous local additive functional $Z^{[u]}$ of zero quadratic variation such that $$A_t^{[u]}=Y_t^{[u]}+Z_t^{[u]}+F_t^{[u]}.$$ Further, we define the stochastic integral $\int_0^t\tilde v(X_{s-})dA_s^{[u]}$ for $v\in D(\mathcal{E})_{loc}$ and derive the related Itô's formula.
