Proc. Appl. 122 (2012), 2758-2780", "categories": [ "math.PR" ], "abstract": "Let U be an open set in R^d. We show that under a mild assumption on the richness of the generator a Feller process in U with (predictable) killing is a semimartingale. To this end we generalize the notion of semimartingales in a natural way to those 'with killing'. Furthermore we calculate the semimartingale characteristics of the Feller process explicitly and analyze their connections to the symbol. Finally we derive a probabilistic formula to calculate the symbol of the process directly.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2012-05-04T07:56:59.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60J75", "60J25", "60H05", "47G30", "60G51" ], "keywords": [ "feller processes", "semimartingale nature", "open set", "mild assumption", "natural way" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1008.2279S" } } }
