Download or read book Diffusion Processes and Partial Differential Equations written by Kazuaki Taira and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a careful and accessible exposition of functional analytic methods in stochastic analysis. It focuses on the relationship between Markov processes and elliptic boundary value problems and explores several recent developments in the theory of partial differential equations which have made further progress in the study of Markov processes possible. This book will have great appeal to both advanced students and researchers as an introduction to three interrelated subjects in analysis (Markov processes, semigroups, and elliptic boundary value problems), providing powerful methods for future research.
