Abstract: | For Gaussian vector fields {X(t) ∈ Rn:t ∈ Rd} we describe the covariance functions of all scaling limits Y(t) = limα↓0 B?1(α) X(αt) which can occur when B(α) is a d × d matrix function with B(α) → 0. These matrix covariance functions are found to be homogeneous in the sense that for some matrix L and each α > 0, . Processes with stationary increments satisfying (1) are further analysed and are found to be natural generalizations of Lévy's multiparameter Brownian motion. |
