The $α$-orthogonal complements of regular subspaces of 1-dim Brownian motion

Abstract

Roughly speaking, a regular subspace of a Dirichlet form is a subspace, which is also a regular Dirichlet form, on the same state space. In particular, the domain of regular subspace is a closed subspace of the Hilbert space induced by the domain and $α$-inner product of original Dirichlet form. We shall investigate the orthogonal complement of regular subspace of 1-dimensional Brownian motion in this paper. Our main results indicate that this orthogonal complement has a very close connection with the $α$-harmonic equation under Neumann boundary condition.
