Abstract

We study stochastic differential equations of the type

$$\displaystyle{ X_{t} = x +\sum _{ i=1}^{d}\int _{ 0}^{t}V _{ i}(X_{s}^{x}) \circ dM_{ s}^{i},\text{ }0 \leq t \leq T, }$$

where (M s )0 ≤ s ≤ T is a semimartingale generating a loop in the free Carnot group of step N and show how the properties of the random variable X T x are closely related to the Lie subalgebra generated by the commutators of the V i ’s with length greater than N + 1. It is furthermore shown that if f is a smooth function, then

$$\displaystyle{\lim _{T\rightarrow 0}\frac{\mathbb{E}(\,f(X_{T}^{x})) - f(x)} {T^{N+1}} = (\Delta _{N}\,f)(x),}$$

where \(\Delta _{N}\) is a second order operator related to the V i s.
