A non-linear Riesz respresentation in probabilistic potential theory
Please always quote using this URN:urn:nbn:de:0296-matheon-2578
- For a nice Markov process such as Brownian motion on a bounded domain, we introduce a non-linear potential operator defined in terms of running suprema, and we prove a non-linear Riesz representation of a given function as the sum of a harmonic function and a non-linear potential. The proof involves a family of optimal stopping problems in analogy to the general construction of Bank and El Karoui [3], but here the analysis is carried out in terms of probabilistic potential theory.
