Abstract

A method for solving the Kolmogorov–Feller equation for an ultrametric random walk in an axially symmetric external field is considered. The transition function w(y | x), x, y ∈ p , of the process under consideration is nonsymmetric and depends on the norm of p-adic arguments. It is proved for transition functions of the form w(y | x) = ρ(|x − y| p )φ(|x| p ) that solving the p-adic Kolmogorov–Feller equation for a random walk in a p-adic ball of radius p R reduces to solving a system of R +1 ordinary differential equations.
