Abstract
Let L be an nth order linear differential operator with smooth coefficients and {W(t) : t ∈ [0, 1]} a standard Wiener process. We consider the stochastic differential equation
on [0, 1], with the lateral condition
where 0 ≤ t 1 < … < t m ≤ 1 and α ij , c i ∈ ℝ. We prove that the solution to this system, considered as the vector Y(t) = (X (n−1)(t),…, X′(t), X(t)), is not a Markov field in general but satisfies a weaker conditional independence property.
