We also prove that a stronger form of ASF together with local weak irreducibility implies uniqueness of an invariant measure. The latter result is optimal in a certain sense and complements some of the corresponding results of Hairer, Mattingly (2008).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-12-12T18:39:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "asymptotic strong feller property", "generalized couplings", "local weak irreducibility implies uniqueness" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
