Abstract
Let \({{\mathcal {X}}}\) be a real separable Hilbert space. Let C be a linear, bounded, non-negative self-adjoint operator on \({{\mathcal {X}}}\) and let A be the infinitesimal generator of a strongly continuous semigroup in \({{\mathcal {X}}}\). Let \(\{W(t)\}_{t\ge 0}\) be a \({{\mathcal {X}}}\)-valued cylindrical Wiener process on a filtered (normal) probability space \((\Omega ,{\mathcal {F}},\{{\mathcal {F}}_t\}_{t\ge 0},{\mathbb {P}})\). Let \(F:{{\text {Dom}}}(F)\subseteq {{\mathcal {X}}}\rightarrow {{\mathcal {X}}}\) be a smooth enough function. We are interested in the generalized mild solution \({\lbrace X(t,x)\rbrace _{t\ge 0}}\) of the semilinear stochastic partial differential equation
We consider the transition semigroup defined by
If \({{\mathcal {O}}}\) is an open set of \({{\mathcal {X}}}\), we consider the Dirichlet semigroup defined by
where \(\tau _x\) is the exit time defined by
We study the infinitesimal generator of P(t), \(P^{{\mathcal {O}}}(t)\) in \(L^2({{\mathcal {X}}},\nu )\), \(L^2({{\mathcal {O}}},\nu )\) respectively, where \(\nu \) is the unique invariant measure of P(t).
