Algebraic Convergence Rate for Reflecting Diffusion Processes on Manifolds with Boundary

A criteria for the algebraic convergence rate of diffusion semigroups on manifolds with respect to some Lipschitz norms in L ²-sense is presented by using a Lyapunov condition. As application, we apply it to some diffusion processes with heavy tailed invariant distributions. This result is further extended to the reflecting diffusion processes on manifolds with non-convex boundary by using a conformal change of the metric.
