Abstract

Suppose that d ≥ 1 and α ∈ (1, 2). Let L^b = −(−Δ)^α/2 + b · ∇, where b is an ℝ^d-valued measurable function on Rd belonging to a certain Kato class of the rotationally symmetric α-stable process Y on ℝ^d. We show that the martingale problem for (L^b, C^∞_c (ℝ^d)) has a unique solution for every starting point x ∈ ℝ^d. Furthermore, we show that the stochastic differential equation dXt = dY_t + b(X_t)dt with X₀ = x has a unique weak solution for every x ∈ ℝ^d.
