We study the weak limits of solutions to SDEs \[dX_n(t)=a_n\bigl(X_n(t)\bigr)\,dt+dW(t),\] where the sequence $\{a_n\}$ converges in some sense to $(c_- 1\mkern-4.5mu\mathrm{l}_{x<0}+c_+ 1\mkern-4.5mu\mathrm{l}_{x>0})/x+γδ_0$. Here $δ_0$ is the Dirac delta function concentrated at zero. A limit of $\{X_n\}$ may be a Bessel process, a skew Bessel process, or a mixture of Bessel processes.
We study a limit behavior of a sequence of Markov processes (or Markov chains) such that their distributions outside of any neighborhood of a "singular" point attract to some probability law. In any neighborhood of this point the behavior may be irregular. As an example of the general result we consider a symmetric random walk with the unit jump that is perturbed in a neighborhood of 0. The invariance principle is obtained under standard scaling of time and space. The limit process turns out to be a skew Brownian motion.
