Let X
t
be a diffusion in Euclidean space. We initiate a study of the geometry of smoothly bounded domains in Euclidean space using
the moments of the exit time for particles driven by X
t
, as functionals on the space of smoothly bounded domains. We provide a characterization of critical points for each functional
in terms of an overdetermined boundary value problem. For Brownian motion we prove that, for each functional, the boundary
value problem which characterizes critical points admits solutions if and only if the critical point is a ball, and that all
critical points are maxima.

results when a is in C
1/2 and b is only a generalized function, for example,the distributional derivative of a H?lder function or of a function of bounded
variation. When b = aa′, that is, when the generator of the SDE is the divergence form operator ℒ = , a result on non-existence of a strong solution and non-pathwise uniqueness is given as well as a result which characterizes
when a solution is a semimartingale or not. We also consider extensions of the notion of Stratonovich integral.

Let X be a Lévy process in, , obtained by subordinating Brownian motion with a subordinator with a positive drift. Such a process has the same law as the sum of an independent Brownian motion and a Lévy process with no continuous component. We study the asymptotic behavior of the Green function of X near zero. Under the assumption that the Laplace exponent of the subordinator is a complete Bernstein function we also describe the asymptotic behavior of the Green function at infinity. With an additional assumption on the Lévy measure of the subordinator we prove that the Harnack inequality is valid for the nonnegative harmonic functions of X. 相似文献

Let X be a symmetric stable process of index α∈ (1,2] and let L

t
→∞ |V(t)| = ∞ almost surely. An estimate is given concerning the rate of escape of V. The result extends a well-known theorem of Bass and Griffin for Brownian motion. Our approach is based upon an extension
of the Ray–Knight theorem for symmetric Markov processes, and relates stable local times to fractional Brownian motion and
further to the winding problem for planar Brownian motion.

If X is a symmetric Lévy process on the line, then there exists a non-decreasing, càdlàg process H such that X(H(x)) = x for all x≥ 0 if and only if X is recurrent and has a non-trivial Gaussian component. The minimal such H is a subordinator K. The law of K is identified and shown to be the same as that of a linear time change of the inverse local time at 0 of X. When X is Brownian motion, K is just the usual ladder times process and this result extends the classical result of Lévy that the maximum process has
the same law as the local time at 0. Write G
t
for last point in the range of K prior to t. In a parallel with classical fluctuation theory, the process Z := (X
t
−X
Gt
)
t
≥0 is Markov with local time at 0 given by (X
Gt
)
t
≥0. The transition kernel and excursion measure of Z are identified. A similar programme is outlined for Lévy processes on the circle. This leads to the construction of a stopping
time such that the stopped local times constitute a stationary process indexed by the circle.

We consider a super-Brownian motion X. Its canonical measures can be studied through the path-valued process called the Brownian snake. We obtain the limiting
behavior of the volume of the ɛ-neighborhood for the range of the Brownian snake, and as a consequence we derive the analogous
result for the range of super-Brownian motion and for the support of the integrated super-Brownian excursion. Then we prove
the support of X
t
is capacity-equivalent to [0, 1]2 in ℝd, d≥ 3, and the range of X, as well as the support of the integrated super-Brownian excursion are capacity-equivalent to [0, 1]4 in ℝd, d≥ 5.

It is studied the first-passage time (FPT) of a time homogeneous one-dimensional diffusion, driven by the stochastic differential
equation dX(t) = μ(X(t))dt + σ(X(t)) dB

0, through b + Y(t), where b > x
0 and Y(t) is a compound Poisson process with rate λ > 0 starting at 0, which is independent of the Brownian motion B
t
. In particular, the FPT density is investigated, generalizing a previous result, already known in the case when X(t) = μt + B
t
, for which the FPT density is the solution of a certain integral equation. A numerical method is shown to calculate approximately
the FPT density; some examples and numerical results are also reported. 相似文献

Let {W(t),t∈R}, {B(t),t∈R } be two independent Brownian motions on R with W(0) = B(0) = 0. In this paper, we shall consider the exact Hausdorff measures for the image and graph sets of the d-dimensional iterated Brownian motion X(t), where X(t) = (Xi(t),... ,Xd(t)) and X1(t),... ,Xd(t) are d independent copies of Y(t) = W(B(t)). In particular, for any Borel set Q (?) (0,∞), the exact Hausdorff measures of the image X(Q) = {X(t) : t∈Q} and the graph GrX(Q) = {(t, X(t)) :t∈Q}are established. 相似文献

results for forward and backward stochastic integrals.

The stochastic equation dX

0=x
0∈ℝ when (ℛe
ψ(ξ))−1=o(|ξ|−1) as |ξ|→∞. These conditions coincide with those found by Tanaka, Tsuchiya and Watanabe (J. Math. Kyoto Univ. 14(1), 73–92, 1974) in the case of a(t,x)=a(x). Our approach is based on Krylov’s estimates for Levy processes with time-dependent drift. Some variants of those estimates
are derived in this note. 相似文献

t⩾0 be the n-dimensional hyperbolic Brownian motion, that is the diffusion on the real hyperbolic space having the Laplace–Beltrami operator as its generator. The aim of the paper is to derive the formulas for the Gegenbauer
transform of the Poisson kernel and the Green function of the ball for the process (X
t
)
t⩾0. Under additional hypotheses we prove integral representations for the Poisson kernel. This yields explicit formulas in and spaces for the Poisson kernel and the Green function as well.

We study some finite time transport properties of isotropic Brownian flows. Under a certain nondegeneracy condition on the
potential spectral measure, we prove that uniform shrinking or expansion of balls under the flow over some bounded time interval
can happen with positive probability. We also provide a control theorem for isotropic Brownian flows with drift. Finally,
we apply the above results to show that, under the nondegeneracy condition, the length of a rectifiable curve evolving in
an isotropic Brownian flow with strictly negative top Lyapunov exponent converges to zero as t→∞ with positive probability.

We investigate the extremal behavior of a diffusion X
t given by the SDE
, where W is standard Brownian motion, μ is the drift term and σ is the diffusion coefficient. Under some appropriate conditions
on X
t we prove that the point process of ε -upcrossings converges in distribution to a homogeneous Poisson process. As examples
we study the extremal behavior of term structure models or asset price processes such as the Vasicek model, the Cox–Ingersoll–Ross
model and the generalized hyperbolic diffusion. We also show how to construct a diffusion with pre-determined stationary density
which captures any extremal behavior. As an example we introduce a new model, the generalized inverse Gaussian diffusion.

Let W=sup 0≤t<∞(X(t)−β
t), where X is a spectrally positive Lévy process with expectation zero and 0<β<∞. One of the main results of the paper says that for such a process X, there exists a sequence of M/GI/1 queues for which stationary waiting times converge in distribution to W. The second result shows that condition (III) of Proposition 2 in the paper is not implied by all other conditions. 相似文献

This first result of this paper is about the Laplace transform of u(X
T
) where u is harmonic on some bounded domain Ω, X
t
is Brownian motion and T is the exit time from Ω. The following results focus on exit times from balls and Faber–Krahn and reverse Faber–Krahn type
inequalities for balls. We also study the behaviour of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue for complex balls under complex interpolation.
The method of proof heavily relays on the log-concavity of gaussian measures. 相似文献
