Stochastic Calculus for Dirichlet Processes
Stochastic Calculus for Symmetric Markov Processes
(Originally titled "Stochastic Calculus for Dirichlet Processes")
(To appear in The Annals of Probability)
Using time-reversal, we introduce a stochastic integral for
zero-energy additive functionals of symmetric Markov processes,
extending earlier work of S. Nakao. Various properties of such
stochastic integrals are discussed and an Itô formula for
Dirichlet processes is obtained.
