Hyperbolic and fractional hyperbolic Brownian motion

We examine the hyperbolic, planar Brownian motion and its time-fractional version. The analogy between the hyperbolic Brownian motion and Brownian motion on the sphere is also analysed. We examine in detail the connection between the equations governing the distributions in the Cartesian and hyperbolic coordinates. We discuss the time-fractional generalization of hyperbolic Brownian motion and give a representation of it as composition of classical hyperbolic Brownian motion with a reflecting Brownian motion on the line.     

Ergodicity and First Passage Probability of Regime-Switching Geometric Brownian Motions

A regime-switching geometric Brownian motion is used to model a geometric Brownian motion with its coefficients changing randomly according to a Markov chain. In this work, the author gives a complete characterization of the recurrent property of this process. The long time behavior of this process such as its p-th moment is also studied. Moreover, the quantitative properties of the regime-switching geometric Brownian motion with two-state switching are investigated to show the difference between geometric Brownian motion with switching and without switching. At last, some estimates of its first passage probability are established.     

Conditioned stochastic differential equations: theory, examples and application to finance

We generalize the notion of Brownian bridge. More precisely, we study a standard Brownian motion for which a certain functional is conditioned to follow a given law. Such processes appear as weak solutions of stochastic differential equations that we call conditioned stochastic differential equations. The link with the theory of initial enlargement of filtration is made and after a general presentation several examples are studied: the conditioning of a standard Brownian motion (and more generally of a Markov diffusion) by its value at a given date, the conditioning of a geometric Brownian motion with negative drift by its quadratic variation and finally the conditioning of a standard Brownian motion by its first hitting time of a given level. As an application, we introduce the notion of weak information on a complete market, and we give a “quantitative” value to this weak information.     

Some extensions of the arc sine law as partial consequences of the scaling property of Brownian motion

Summary The scaling property of Brownian motion is exploited systematically in order to extend Paul Lévy's arc sine law to Brownian motion perturbed by its local time at 0. Other important ingredients of the proofs are some Ray-Knight theorems for local times.

Ten penalisation results of Brownian motion involving its one-sided supremum until first and last passage times, VIII

We penalise Brownian motion by a function of its one-sided supremum considered up to the last zero before t, respectively first zero after t, of that Brownian motion. This study presents some analogy with penalisation by the longest length of Brownian excursions, up to time t.     

A version of Pitman's 2M — X theorem for geometric Brownian motions

We show that geometric Brownian motion with parameter μ, i.e., the exponential of linear Brownian motion with drift μ, divided by its quadratic variation process is a diffusion process. Taking logarithms and an appropriate scaling limit, we recover the Rogers-Pitman extension to Brownian motion with drift of Pitman's representation theorem for the three-dimensional Bessel process. Time inversion and generalized inverse Gaussian distributions play crucial roles in our proofs.     

Exact inequalities for the maximum of a skew Brownian motion

The maximal inequality for the skew Brownian motion being a generalization of the well-known inequalities for the standard Brownian motion and its module is obtained in the paper. The proof is based on the solution to an optimal stopping problem for which we find the cost function and optimal stopping time.     

Non-independence of excursions of the Brownian sheet and of additive Brownian motion

A classical and important property of Brownian motion is that given its zero set, distinct excursions away from zero are independent. In this paper, we examine the analogous question for the Brownian sheet, and also for additive Brownian motion. Our main result is that given the level set of the Brownian sheet at level zero, distinct excursions of the sheet away from zero are not independent. In fact, given the zero set of the Brownian sheet in the entire non-negative quadrant, and the sign of all but a finite number of excursions away from zero, the signs of the remaining excursions are determined. For additive Brownian motion, we prove the following definitive result: given the zero set of additive Brownian motion and the sign of a single excursion, the signs of all other excursions are determined. In an appendix by John B. Walsh, it is shown that given the absolute value of the sheet in the entire quadrant and, in addition, the sign of the sheet at a fixed, non-random time point, then the whole sheet can be recovered.

     

Lower Bounds for the Distribution of Suprema of Brownian Increments and Brownian Motion Normalized by the Corresponding Modulus Functions

The Lévy–Ciesielski construction of Brownian motion is used to determine non-asymptotic estimates for the maximal deviation of increments of a Brownian motion process \((W_{t})_{t\in \left[ 0,T\right] }\) normalized by the global modulus function, for all positive \(\varepsilon \) and \(\delta \). Additionally, uniform results over \(\delta \) are obtained. Using the same method, non-asymptotic estimates for the distribution function for the standard Brownian motion normalized by its local modulus of continuity are obtained. Similar results for the truncated Brownian motion are provided and play a crucial role in establishing the results for the standard Brownian motion case.     

On the potential in non‐Gaussian chain polymer models

In this paper, we investigate the potential for a class of non‐Gaussian processes so‐called generalized grey Brownian motion. We obtain a closed analytic form for the potential as an integral of the M‐Wright functions and the Green function. In particular, we recover the special cases of Brownian motion and fractional Brownian motion. In addition, we give the connection to a fractional partial differential equation and its the fundamental solution.     

Local Functional Limit Theorems of Increments for Brownian Motion

In this paper, we present a local Csrg–Révész type functional limit theorem for increments of Brownian motion and give its convergence rate. The results also extend the functional forms of Lévy's modulus of continuity for Brownian motion.     

Finite dimensional characteristic functions of Brownian rough path

The Brownian rough path is the canonical lifting of Brownian motion to the free nilpotent Lie group of order 2: Equivalently, it is a process taking values in the algebra of Lie polynomials of degree 2, which is described explicitly by the Brownian motion coupled with its area process. The aim of this article is to compute the finite dimensional characteristic functions of the Brownian rough path in ?^d and obtain an explicit formula for the case when d = 2

Rough path stability of (semi-)linear SPDEs

We give meaning to linear and semi-linear (possibly degenerate) parabolic partial differential equations with (affine) linear rough path noise and establish stability in a rough path metric. In the case of enhanced Brownian motion (Brownian motion with its Lévy area) as rough path noise the solution coincides with the standard variational solution of the SPDE.     

Brownian motion in cones

Summary. We study the asymptotic behavior of Brownian motion and its conditioned process in cones using an infinite series representation of its transition density. A concise probabilistic interpretation of this series in terms of the skew product decomposition of Brownian motion is derived and used to show properties of the transition density.

A Set-indexed Fractional Brownian Motion

We define and prove the existence of a fractional Brownian motion indexed by a collection of closed subsets of a measure space. This process is a generalization of the set-indexed Brownian motion, when the condition of independance is relaxed. Relations with the Lévy fractional Brownian motion and with the fractional Brownian sheet are studied. We prove stationarity of the increments and a property of self-similarity with respect to the action of solid motions. Moreover, we show that there no “really nice” set indexed fractional Brownian motion other than set-indexed Brownian motion. Finally, behavior of the set-indexed fractional Brownian motion along increasing paths is analysed.

Hitting probabilities and fractal dimensions of multiparameter multifractional Brownian motion

The main goal of this paper is to study the sample path properties for the harmonisable-type N-parameter multifractional Brownian motion, whose local regularities change as time evolves. We provide the upper and lower bounds on the hitting probabilities of an （N, d）-multifractional Brownian motion. Moreover, we determine the Hausdorff dimension of its inverse images, and the Hausdorff and packing dimensions of its level sets.
