Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I consider the existence and uniqueness of quasi-stationary distributions (QSD) for irreducible, strong Feller, symmetric Markov processes with tightness property. A Markov process with these properties is said to be in Class(T). I show that the semi-group of a Markov process in Class (T) is a compact operator, and thus the ground state of the Markov generator exists. We see that if the ground state is integrable with respect to the symmetrized measure, a QSD can be constructed explicitly. I can see from a result of Y. Miura, my teaching doctoral student, that if the semigroup of the symmetric Markov process in Class (T) is intrinsic ultracontractive, the existence and uniqueness of QSD follows. Combining Miura's result with Tomisaki's result on the intrinsic ultracontractivity, we can show the existence and uniqueness of QSD for one-dimensional diffusion processes in terms of speed measure and scale function.
