Given an Itô semimartingale X, its Markovian projection is an Itô semimartingale \widehatX, with Markovian differential characteristics, that matches the one-dimensional marginal laws of X. One may even require certain functionals of the two processes to have the same fixed-time marginals, at the cost of enhancing the differential characteristics of \widehatX but still in a Markovian sense. In the continuous case, the definitive result on existence of Markovian projections was obtained by Brunick and Shreve~\citeMR3098443. In this paper, we extend their result to the fully general setting of Itô semimartingales with jumps.
