Lyapunov Criteria for the Feller-Dynkin Property of Martingale Problems

Abstract

We give necessary and sufficient criteria for the Feller-Dynkin property of solutions to martingale problems in terms of Lyapunov functions. Moreover, we derive a Khasminskii-type integral test for the Feller-Dynkin property of multidimensional diffusions with random switching. For one dimensional switching diffusions with state-independent switching, we provide an integral-test for the Feller-Dynkin property.
