On the Martingale Problem and Feller and Strong Feller Properties for Weakly Coupled Lévy Type Operators

Abstract: This paper considers the martingale problem for a class of weakly coupled L\'{e}vy type operators. It is shown that under some mild conditions, the martingale problem is well-posed and uniquely determines a strong Markov process $(X,\Lambda)$. The process $(X,\Lambda)$, called a regime-switching jump diffusion with L\'evy type jumps, is further shown to posses Feller and strong Feller properties under non-Lipschitz conditions via the coupling method.
