Sets of finite perimeter and the Hausdorff-Gauss measure on the Wiener space

In Euclidean space, the integration by parts formula for a set of finite perimeter is expressed by the integration with respect to a type of surface measure. According to geometric measure theory, this surface measure is realized by the one-codimensional Hausdorff measure restricted on the reduced boundary and/or the measure-theoretic boundary, which may be strictly smaller than the topological boundary. In this paper, we discuss the counterpart of this measure in the abstract Wiener space, which is a typical infinite-dimensional space. We introduce the concept of the measure-theoretic boundary in the Wiener space and provide the integration by parts formula for sets of finite perimeter. The formula is presented in terms of the integration with respect to the one-codimensional Hausdorff-Gauss measure restricted on the measure-theoretic boundary.

Energy measures and indices of Dirichlet forms, with applications to derivatives on some fractals

We introduce the concept of index for regular Dirichlet forms by means of energy measures, and discuss its properties. In particular, it is proved that the index of strong local regular Dirichlet forms is identical with the martingale dimension of the associated diffusion processes. As an application, a class of self-similar fractals is taken up as an underlying space. We prove that first-order derivatives can be defined for functions in the domain of the Dirichlet forms and their total energies are represented as the square integrals of the derivatives.

Reflecting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes on pinned path spaces

Consider a set of continuous maps from the interval $[0,1]$ to a domain in ${\mathbb R}^d$. Although the topological boundary of this set in the path space is not smooth in general, by using the theory of functions of bounded variation (BV functions) on the Wiener space and the theory of Dirichlet forms, we can discuss the existence of the surface measure and the Skorokhod representation of the reflecting Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process associated with the canonical Dirichlet form on this set.

Martingale dimensions for fractals

We prove that the martingale dimensions for canonical diffusion processes on a class of self-similar sets including nested fractals are always one. This provides an affirmative answer to the conjecture of S. Kusuoka [Publ. Res. Inst. Math. Sci. 25 (1989) 659--680].

A trace theorem for Dirichlet forms on fractals

We consider a trace theorem for self-similar Dirichlet forms on self-similar sets to self-similar subsets. In particular, we characterize the trace of the domains of Dirichlet forms on the Sierpinski gaskets and the Sierpinski carpets to their boundaries, where boundaries mean the triangles and rectangles which confine gaskets and carpets. As an application, we construct diffusion processes on a collection of fractals called fractal fields, which behave as the appropriate fractal diffusion within each fractal component of the field.
