Markov chain approximations for nonsymmetric processes

The aim of this article is to prove that diffusion processes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with a drift can be approximated by suitable Markov chains on $n^{-1} \mathbb{Z}^d$. Moreover, we investigate sufficient conditions on the edge weights which guarantee convergence of the associated Markov chains to such M...

Description
Summary:The aim of this article is to prove that diffusion processes in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with a drift can be approximated by suitable Markov chains on $n^{-1} \mathbb{Z}^d$. Moreover, we investigate sufficient conditions on the edge weights which guarantee convergence of the associated Markov chains to such Markov processes. Analogous questions are answered for a large class of nonsymmetric jump processes. The proofs of our results rely on regularity estimates for weak solutions to the corresponding nonsymmetric parabolic equations and Dirichlet form techniques.
