On a Class of Non-Translation Invariant Feller Semigroups on Lie Groups

We consider a class of Feller semigroups on Lie groups which fail to commute with left translation due to the existence of a cocycle h which is identically one for Lévy processes. Under certain conditions, we are able to show that the infinitesimal generator of such a semigroup has the Lévy–Khintchine–Hunt form but with variable characteristics, thus we obtain an extension of classical work in Euclidean space by Courrège.
