$L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class for symmetric Markov processes

In this paper, we introduce the notion of $L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class in the framework of symmetric Markov processes. The class of $L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class is defined by the $p$-th power of resolvent kernels. We first prove that under the $L^p$-Green tightness of the measure $μ$, the embedding of extended Dirichlet space into $L^{2p}(E;μ)$ is compact under the absolute continuity condition for transient Markov processes, which is an extension of recent seminal work by Takeda. Secondly, we prove the coincidence between two classes of $L^p$-Green-tightness, one is originally introduced by Zhao, and another one is invented by Chen. Finally, we prove that our class of $L^p$-Green-tight measures of $L^p$-Kato class coincides with the class of $L^p$-Green tight measures of Kato class in terms of Green kernel under the global heat kernel estimates. We apply our results to $d$-dimensional Brownian motion androtationally symmetric relativistic $α$-stable processes on $\mathbb{R}^d$.

Stochastic calculus over symmetric Markov processes without time reversal

We refine stochastic calculus for symmetric Markov processes without using time reverse operators. Under some conditions on the jump functions of locally square integrable martingale additive functionals, we extend Nakao's divergence-like continuous additive functional of zero energy and the stochastic integral with respect to it under the law for quasi-everywhere starting points, which are refinements of the previous results under the law for almost everywhere starting points. This refinement of stochastic calculus enables us to establish a generalized Fukushima decomposition for a certain class of functions locally in the domain of Dirichlet form and a generalized Itô formula. (With Errata.)

A topological splitting theorem for weighted Alexandrov spaces

Under an infinitesimal version of the Bishop-Gromov relative volume comparison condition for a measure on an Alexandrov space, we prove a topological splitting theorem of Cheeger-Gromoll type. As a corollary, we prove an isometric splitting theorem for Riemannian manifolds with singularities of nonnegative (Bakry-Emery) Ricci curvature.

On subhamonicity for symmetric Markov processes

We establish the equivalence of the analytic and probabilistic notions of subharmonicity in the framework of general symmetric Hunt processes on locally compact separable metric spaces, extending an earlier work of the first named author on the equivalence of the analytic and probabilistic notions of harmonicity. As a corollary, we prove a strong maximum principle for locally bounded finely continuous subharmonic functions in the space of functions locally in the domain of the Dirichlet form under some natural conditions.

Laplacian comparison for Alexandrov spaces

We consider an infinitesimal version of the Bishop-Gromov relative volume comparison condition as generalized notion of Ricci curvature bounded below for Alexandrov spaces. We prove a Laplacian comparison theorem for Alexandrov spaces under the condition. As an application we prove a topological splitting theorem.

Variational convergence over metric spaces

We introduce a natural definition of $L^p$-convergence of maps, $p \ge 1$, in the case where the domain is a convergent sequence of measured metric space with respect to the measured Gromov-Hausdorff topology and the target is a Gromov-Hausdorff convergent sequence. With the $L^p$-convergence, we establish a theory of variational convergences. We prove that the Poincaré inequality with some additional condition implies the asymptotic compactness. The asymptotic compactness is equivalent to the Gromov-Hausdorff compactness of the energy-sublevel sets. Supposing that the targets are $\CAT(0)$-spaces, we study convergence of resolvents. As applications, we investigate the approximating energy functional over a measured metric space and convergence of energy functionals with a lower bound of Ricci curvature.
