✦ Synopsis


This book is a unique and profound contribution to
the investigation of diffusion processes and
stochastic analysis on manifolds. It employs the
M alliavin calculus and large deviation techniques
to study the asymptotics of the conditional
probabilities of bridges associated with certain
hypoelliptic diffusions. The program is fully
completed in the elliptic case. In the hypoelliptic
case, a deterministic Malliavin calculus is
developed which exhibits the importance of the
corresponding Malliavin covariance matrix in
studying the curves of minimal action, and their
relations to bicharacteristic curves. Two
conjectures are formulated in the hypoelliptic
case. A case study is done for the Heisenberg
group.

An important volume for research
mathematicians working in probability, diffusion
theory, geometry, and mathematical physics.
