For this we introduce a new notion called the measure valued gradient which is a randomized square root of $\\Gamma$. The exposition begins with inspecting some natural notions candidate to solve the problem before proposing the measure-valued gradient and proving its satisfactory properties.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-10-16T14:07:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "31C25", "65G99", "60H07" ], "keywords": [ "differential calculus", "measure-valued gradient", "study local dirichlet forms", "square field operator", "natural notions candidate" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math.....10485B" } } }
