Note that $Z_t$ is Markovian. % %Let $f(x)$ and $v(x)$ be two functions and let %\begin{align*} % J_t &= \exp\left\{\int_0^t v(Z_s)\,ds \right\}, \\ % V(t,x) &= \bbE^x[f(Z_t)J_t] %\end{align*} %where %$\bbE^x[Y]$ denotes $\bbE[Y \mid Z_0 = x]$. We assume that this expectation %exists for all $t,x$. If $s
