We show that the Markov semigroups generated by a large class of singular stochastic PDEs satisfy the strong Feller property. These include for example the KPZ equation and the dynamical $Phi^4_3$ model. As a corollary, we prove that the Brownian bridge measure is the unique invariant measure for the KPZ equation with periodic boundary conditions.
Let $mathscr{T}$ be the regularity structure associated with a given system of singular stochastic PDEs. The paracontrolled representation of the $sf Pi$ map provides a linear parametrization of the nonlinear space of admissible models $sf M=(g,Pi)$ on $mathscr{T}$, in terms of the family of para-remainders used in the representation. We give an explicit description of the action of the most general class of renormalization schemes presently available on the parametrization space of the space of admissible models. The action is particularly simple for renormalization schemes associated with degree preserving preparation maps; the BHZ renormalization scheme has that property.
We consider space-time quantum fields with exponential/trigonometric interactions. In the context of Euclidean quantum field theory, the former and the latter are called the Hoegh-Krohn model and the Sine-Gordon model, respectively. The main objective of the present paper is to construct infinite dimensional diffusion processes which solve modified stochastic quantization equations for these quantum fields on the two-dimensional torus by the Dirichlet form approach and to prove strong uniqueness of the corresponding Dirichlet operators.
We develop in this note the tools of regularity structures to deal with singular stochastic PDEs that involve non-translation invariant differential operators. We describe in particular the renormalised equation for a very large class of spacetime dependent renormalization schemes.
This paper studies transition probabilities from a Borel subset of a Polish space to a product of two Borel subsets of Polish spaces. For such transition probabilities it introduces and studies semi-uniform Feller continuity and a weaker property called WTV-continuity. This paper provides several equivalent definitions of semi-uniform Feller continuity and describes the preservation property of WTV-continuity under integration. The motivation for this study came from the theory of Markov decision processes with incomplete information, and this paper provides fundamental results useful for this theory.
We consider a particle undergoing Brownian motion in Euclidean space of any dimension, forced by a Gaussian random velocity field that is white in time and smooth in space. We show that conditional on the velocity field, the quenched density of the particle after a long time can be approximated pointwise by the product of a deterministic Gaussian density and a spacetime-stationary random field $U$. If the velocity field is additionally assumed to be incompressible, then $Uequiv 1$ almost surely and we obtain a local central limit theorem.
