Introduction The following pages are the notes from a seminar that I gave during the spring and some portion of the summer of 1993 at the Mathematics Institute of Oslo University. The aim of the seminars was to give a rapid but rigorous introduction for the graduate students to Analysis on Wiener space, a subject which has grown up very quickly these recent years under the impulse of the Stochastic Calculus of Variations of Paul Malliavin (cf. [12]). Although some concepts are in the preliminaries, I assumed that the students had already acquired the notions of stochastic calculus with semimartingales, Brownian motion and some rudiments of the theory of Markov processes. A small portion of the material exposed is our own research, in particular, with Moshe Zakai. The rest has been taken from the works listed in the bibliography. The first chapter deals with the definition of the (so-called) Gross-Sobolev derivative and the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator which are indispensable tools of the analysis on Wiener space. In the second chapter we begin the proof of the Meyer inequalities, for which the hypercontractivity property of the OrnsteinUhlenbeck semigroup is needed. We expose this last topic in the third chapter, then come back to Meyer inequalities, and complete their proof in chapter IV. Different applications are given in next two chapters. In the seventh chapter we study the independence of some Wiener functionals with the previously developed tools. The chapter VIII is devoted to some series of moment inequalities which are important for applications like large deviations, stochastic differential equations, etc. In the last chapter we expose the contractive version of Ramer's theorem as another example of the applications of moment inequalities developed in the preceding chapter. During my visit to Oslo, I had the chance of having an ideal environment for working and a very attentive audience in the seminars. These notes have particularly profited from the serious criticism of my colleagues and friends Bernt 0ksendal, Tom Lindstrom, Ya-Zhong Hu, and the graduate students of the Mathematics department. It remains for me to express my gratitude also to Nina Haraldsson for her careful typing, and, last but not least, to Laurent Decreusefond for correcting so many errors . Ali Siileyman Ustiinel

Preliminaries This chapter is devoted to the basic results about the Wiener measure, Brownian motion, construction of the Ito stochastic integral and the chaos decomposition associated to it.

The Brownian Motion and the Wiener Measure

1) Let W = Co([O, 1]), w E W, t E [0,1], define Wt(w) = w(t) (the coordinate functional). If we note by Bt = u{W.;s t}, then there is one and only one measure J1. on W such that

i) J1.{Wo(w) = O}

= 1,

ii) 'Vf E Cb' (R), the stochastic process process

1 t

(t,w)

t->

f(Wt(w» -

!,,(W.(w»ds

is a (Bt , J1.)-martingale. J1. is called the Wiener measure. 2)

From the construction we see that for t

> s,

hence (t,w) t-> Wt(w) is a continuous additive process (i.e.,a process with independent increments) and (Wt;t E [0,1]) is also a continous martingale.

3) Stochastic Integration Let K : W x [0,1] --t R be a step process: n

Then we have

i.e. I is an isometry from the adapted step processes into L 2 (/-l ), hence it has a unique extension as an isometry from

where A denotes the sigma algebra on [0,1] x W generated by the adapted, left (or right) continuous processes. I( K) is called the stochastic integral of K and 1 it is denoted as Io K.dWs- If we define

it is easy to see that the stochastic process t .-. It (I{) is a continuous, square integrable martingale. With some localization techniques using stopping times, I can be extended to any adapted process K such that K;(w)ds < 00 a.s. In this case the process t .-. It(I{) becomes a local martingale, i.e., there exists a sequence of stopping times increasing to one, say (Tn, n E N) such that the process t .-. ItATJK) is a (square integrable) martingale.

4) Alternative constructions of the Brownian motion and the Wiener measure A) Let (ii; i E N) be an independent sequence of N 1(0, 1) Gaussian random variables. Let (gi) be a complete, orthonormal basis of L 2[0, 1]. Then W t defined by

is a Brownian motion. If (gi; i E N) is a complete, orthonormal basis of L 2([0, 1]), then

Remark:

N)

E is a complete orthonormal basis of H([O, 1]) (i. e., the first order Sobolev functionals on [0,1]). B) Let (0, F, P) be any abstract probability space and let H be any separable Hilbert space. If L : H - L 2(0, F, P) is a linear operator such that for any b « H, E[exp iL(h)] exp then there exists a Banach space with dense

H is also dense and a probability measure

and

LU*(w*»(w) = (w*,w) almost surely. (W, H, Jl) is called an Abstract Wiener space and Jl is the Wiener measure. If H([O, 1]) {h : h(t) J; h(s)ds, IhlH Ihlp[o,ll} then J1 is the classical Wiener measure and W can be taken as Co([O, 1]).

Remark: In the case of the classical Wiener space, any element A of W* is a signed measure on [0,1], and its image in H = H([O, 1]) can be represented as j*(A)(t) = A([S, l])ds. In fact, we have for any h E H

5) Let us come back to the classical Wiener space: i) It follows from the martingale convergence theorem and the monotone class theorem that the set of random variables

is dense in L 2 (J.l ), where S(Rn ) denotes the space of infinitely differentiable, rapidly decreasing functions on R". ii) It follows from (i), via the Fourier transform that the linear span of the 1 1 set {exp fo h.dW. - fo h;ds; ne L 2([0, I])} is dense in L 2 (J.l ). iii) Because of the analyticity of the characteristic function of the Wiener measure, the elements of the set in (ii) can be approached by the polynomials, hence the polynomials are dense in L 2(J.l). 5.1 Cameron­Martin Theorem: For any bounded Borel measurable function F, h E L 2[0, I], we have

This result tells us that we can define LP-domain of V', denoted by Domp(V') as Definition: FE Domp(V') if and only if there exists a sequencei E, ; n E N) of cylindrical functions such that Fn - F in LP and (V'Fn) is Cauchy in LP(J-I, H). Then we define The extended operator V' is called Gross-Sobolev derivative. We will denote by D p , l the linear space Domp(V') equipped with the norm IlFllp,l = 1IFIlp + IIV' FIIL-(Il,H). Remarks: 1) If X is a separable Hilbert space we can define Dp,l(X) exactly in the same way as before, the only difference is that we take Sx instead of S, i.e., the rapidly decreasing functions with values in X. Then the same closability result holds (exercise!). 2) Hence we can define Dp,1c by iteration: i) We say that FE D p ,2 ifV'F E D p ,l (H ), then write V'2p = V'(V'F). ii) FE Dp,1c if V'1c-l FE D p,1( H 0 (Ic - l )). 3) Note that, for F E Dp,lc, V'1c F is in fact with values tensor product).

(i.e. symmetric

4) From the proof we have that if F E D p ,l , h E Hi and If' is cylindrical, we have E[V'h F 'If'] = -E[F· V'hlf'] + E[I(h)· F 'If'], where I(h) is the first order Wiener integral of the (Lebesgue) density of h. If + p-l = 1), by a limiting argument, the same relation holds again. Let us note that this limiting procedure shows in fact that if V'F E LP(J-I, H) then F.I(h) E LP(J-I), i.e., F is more than p-integrable. This observation gives rise to the logarithmic Sobolev inequality.

Chapter III

Hypercontractivity Hypercontractivity We know that the semi-group of Ornstein-Uhlenbeck is a bounded operator on LP(J.l), for any P E [1,00]. In fact for p E]I,oo[, it is more than bounded. It increases the degree of integrability, this property is called hypercontraetivity and it is used to show the continuity of linear operators on LP(J.l)-spaces defined via the Wiener chaos decomposition or the spectral decomposition of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator. We shall use it in the next chapter to complete the proof of the Meyer inequalities. Hypercontractivity has been first discovered by E. Nelson, here we follow the proof given by [14]. In the sequel we shall show that this result can be proved using the Ito formula. Let (n, A, P) be a probability space with (Bt ; t E R+) being a filtration. We take two Brownian motions (Xt;t 0) and (Yt;t 0) which are not necessarily independent, i.e., X and Yare two continuous, real martingales such that (Xl-t) and (Y? -t) are again martingales (with respect to (Bt}) and that X, - X. and Yi - Y. are independent of B., for t > s. Moreover there exists (Pt; t E R+), progressively measurable with values in [-1, 1] such that t

(XtYto

is again a (Bt)-martingale. Let us denote by

X t = u(X.; s ::; t),

Yt

= u(Y.; s ::; t)

i. e., the correponding filtrations of X and Y and by X and by Y their respective supremum. Lemma 1:

Chapter V

Some applications of the distributions Introduction In this chapter we give some applications of the extended versions of the derivative and the divergence operators. First we give an extension of the Ito­Clark formula to the space of the scalar distributions. We refer the reader to [2J and [17] for the developments of this formula in the case of Sobolev differentiable Wiener functionals. Let us briefly explain the problem: although, we know from the Ito representation theorem, that each square integrable Wiener functional can be represented as the stochastic integral of an adapted process, without the use of the distributions, we can not calculate this process, since any square integrable random variable is not neccessarily in D 2 ,1 , hence it is not Sobolev differentiable in the ordinary sense. As it will explained, this problem is completely solved using the differentiation in the sense of distributions. Afterwards we give a straightforward application of this result to prove a 0 ­ 1 law for the Wiener measure. At the second section we construct the composition of the tempered distributions with nondegenerate Wiener functionals as Meyer­Watanabe distributions. This construction carries also the information that the probability density of a nondegenerate random variable is not only infinitely differentiable but also it is rapidly decreasing. The same idea is then applied to prove the regularity of the solutions of the Zakai equation for the filtering of non­linear diffusions.

If we want to study the smoothness of the measure f ..-. E(f(xdIYt], then from the above formula, we see that it is sufficient to study the smoothness of f ..-. EO[Zt/(xt)IYt]. The reason for the use of pO is that wand (Yt; t E [0,1]) are two independent Brownian motions under pO (this follows directly from Paul Levy's theorem of the characterization of the Brownian motion). After this preliminaries, we can prove the following 'I'heorem Suppose that the map f ..-. f(xt) from S(Rd ) into D has a continuous extension as a map from S' (Rd) into D'. Then the measure f ..-. E(f( Xt)IYt] has a density in S(R d ) .

Proof: As explained above, it is sufficient to prove that the (random) measure f..-. EO[Zt/(xt)IYt] has a density in S(R d ) .

Let .c y be the Ornstein- Uhlenbeck operator on the space of the Brownian motion (Yt;t E [0,1]). Then we have

Positive distributions and applications Positive Meyer-Watanabe distributions If () is a positive distribution on n-, then a well-known theorem says that () is a positive measure, finite on the compact sets. We will prove an analogous result for the Meyer-Watanabe distributions in this section, show that they are absolutely continuous with respect to the capacities defined with respect to the scale of the Sobolev spaces on the Wiener space and give an application to the construction of the local time of the Wiener process. We end the chapter by making some remarks about the Sobolev spaces constructed by the second quantization of an elliptic operator on the Cameron-Martin space. We will work on the classical Wiener space Co([O,I)) = W. First we have the following: Proposition: Suppose (Tn) C D' and each Tn is also a probability on W. If Tn -+ T in D', then T is also a probability and Tn -+ T in the weak topology of measures (on W). Proof: It is sufficient to prove that the set of probability measures (vn ) associated to (Tn), is tight. In fact, let S D n Cb(W), If the tightness holds, then we will have, for v = w - lim V n ,

We will prove that the sequences of densities {An: n E N} and {L n : n E N}

are uniformly integrable. In fact we will do this only for the first sequence since the proof for the second is very similar to the proof of the first case. To prove the uniform integrability, from the lemma of de la Valle-Poussin, it suffices to show sup E [IAnlllogAnlJ < 00, n

As the sequence (1Jn; n E N) is bounded in all LP spaces, this result implies the existence of an H -valued random variable, say v which is the limit of (17n; n E N) in probability. By uniform integrability, the convergence takes place in LP(p, H) for any p > 1 and since the sequence (V'1Jn; n E N) is bounded in UJO(p, H 0 H), also the convergence takes place in Dp,l(H) for any v > 1.
