Large deviation principles for generalized Feynman-Kac functionals and its applications

Abstract

Large deviation principles of occupation distribution for generalized Feyn-man-Kac functionals are presented in the framework of symmetric Markov processes having doubly Feller or strong Feller property. As a consequence, we obtain the $L^p$-independence of spectral radius of our generalized Feynman-Kac functionals. We also prove Fukushima's decomposition in the strict sense for functions locally in the domain of Dirichlet form having energy measure of Dynkin class without assuming no inside killing.
