On stationarity of stochastic retarded linear equations with unbounded drift operators
Kai Liu · Stochastic Analysis and Applications · 2016
This article continues the study of Liu [Statist. Probab. Lett. 78(2008): 1775–1783; Stoch. Anal. Appl. 29(2011): 799–823] for stationary solutions of stochastic linear retarded functional differential equations with the emphasis on delays which appear in those terms including spatial partial derivatives. As a consequence, the associated stochastic equations have unbounded operators acting on the point or distributed delayed terms, while the operator acting on the instantaneous term generates a strongly continuous semigroup. We present conditions on the delay systems to obtain a unique stationary solution by combining spectrum analysis of unbounded operators and stochastic calculus. A few instructive cases are analyzed in detail to clarify the underlying complexity in the study of systems with unbounded delayed operators.
