Can an SDE be made to follow the flow lines of a vector field?
Let $V: \mathbb R^n \to \mathbb R^n$ be a Lipschitz vector field. Consider a one dimensional Brownian motion $W$ and the SDE
$$dX_t = V(X_t) \, dW_t,$$
where we identify $V(X_t) \in \mathbb R^n$ with ...

Inequality in Gaussian space -- possibly provable by rearrangement?
The following problem arose for my collaborators and me when studying the computational complexity of the Maximum-Cut problem.
Let $f : \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}$ be an odd function. Let $\rho \in [...

Non-existence for a sort of probability measures
We suppose $X$ solves our SDE $dX_{t}=-X_{t}dt+dW_{t}$ for $t\geq0$ with initial condition $X_{0}=0$ w.r.t to our measure $P$ on $(\Omega,\mathcal{F})$.
$W_{t}$ is standard Wiener.
This solution is ...

Maximal principle for stochastic heat equation
Consider $\partial_{t}u=\partial_{xx}u$ with Neumann boundary condition
$u_{x}(0,t)=u_{x}(1,t)=0$ and initial condition $u(x,0)=f(x)\geqslant0$.
Then up to time $T$, the maximal value of $u$ should be ...

Colored noise in SDE
I want to numerically study the behavior of a system described by a set of differential equations in the presence of colored noise. It seems that the standard procedure is to use the Langevin equation:...
