In particular, we provide probabilistic conditions that guarantee that the formal stochastic representation of a solution is smooth on the interior of the domain and continuously approaches the prescribed boundary data at a given boundary point. The main general results are proved using fine properties of the process stopped at the boundary of the domain combined with hypoellipticity of the operators associated to the SDE. The main general results are then applied to deduce properties of the associated Green’s functions and to obtain a generalization of Bony’s Harnack inequality. We moreover revisit the transience and recurrence dichotomy for hypoelliptic diffusions and its relationship to invariant measures.","PeriodicalId":46216,"journal":{"name":"Probability Surveys","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2021-12-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49560800","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ostoja-Starzewski","doi":"10.1214/22-ps12","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1214/22-ps12","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper, we review the history, current state-of-art, and physical applications of the spectral theory of two classes of random functions. One class consists of homogeneous and isotropic random fields defined on a Euclidean space and taking values in a real finite-dimensional linear space. In applications to continuum physics, such a field describes physical properties of a homogeneous and isotropic continuous medium in the situation, when a microstructure is attached to all medium points. The range of the field is the fixed point set of a symmetry class, where two compact Lie groups act by orthogonal representations. The material symmetry group of a homogeneous medium is the same at each point and acts trivially, while the group of physical symmetries may act nontrivially. In an isotropic random medium, the rank 1 (resp. rank 2) correlation tensors of the field transform under the action of the group of physical symmetries according to the above representation (resp. its tensor square), making the field isotropic. Another class consists of isotropic random cross-sections of homogeneous vector bundles over a coset space of a compact Lie group. In applications to cosmology, the coset space models the sky sphere, while the random cross-section models a cosmic background. The Cosmological Principle ensures that the cross-section is isotropic. For convenience of the reader, a necessary material from multilinear algebra, representation theory, and differential geometry is reviewed in Appendix. ∗Corresponding author.

The key ingredient is a bound on cumulants of the type |κj(X)| ≤ j!1+γ/∆j−2, which is weaker than Cramér’s condition of finite exponential moments. We give a self-contained proof of some of the “main lemmas” in a book by Saulis and Statulevičius (1989), and an accessible introduction to the Cramér-Petrov series. In addition, we explain relations with heavy-tailed Weibull variables, moderate deviations, and mod-phi convergence. We discuss some methods for bounding cumulants such as summability of mixed cumulants and dependency graphs, and briefly review a few recent applications of the method of cumulants for the normal approximation.
