Intrinsic Kolmogorov moment bounds for a transition semigroup #
Kolmogorov's continuity criterion is usually imposed on an already constructed coordinate
process. This file states the same criterion directly on the transition semigroup: the
p-th moment of the displacement accumulated over a time step h is at most M * h ^ q,
uniformly in the starting point.
The predicate is purely a moment bound on the transition kernels. It makes no path-space, continuity, or stochastic-process claim; the transport of this bound to the canonical dense-time coordinate process is proved elsewhere.
A uniform p-th moment bound on the displacement of P over time h, of order h ^ q.
The exponents are constrained by 0 < p and 1 < q, exactly the range in which the
Kolmogorov--Chentsov threshold (q - 1) / p is a positive Hölder exponent.
The bound is demanded for every time h ≥ 0, not only
for small h; this is stronger than the local criterion the Kolmogorov--Chentsov theorem
needs, and it is what the bridge to KolmogorovRegular consumes.
