  • Abstract
    It is demonstrated that the transition density function of a randomly excited diffusion process satisfies an integro-differential equation involving functional derivatives. It is shown that the confinement probability at a fixed spatial point also satisfies this backward equation. An upper bound to the confinement probability is calculated for a specific numerical example.
