Fractional Brownian motion via Hilbert space

The Brownian motion has the following (Levy-Ciesielski?) construction via Hilbert space isomorphisms: Let $\{ Z_i \}_{i \in \mathbb{Z}}$ be i.i.d. $N(0,1)$ random variables defined on $(\Omega, \...

Reference request: Stochastic integration and martingale theory on the whole real line

I'm looking for a thorough treatment of stochastic integration and/or martingale theory on the whole real line, i.e. a way to construct a Brownian motion $(B_s)_{s \in \mathbb{R}}$ (if a two-sided BM ...

Properties of the algebraic self-difference set of Brownian motion zeros

As I was trying to exhibit new interesting(?) path transformations of Brownian motion, I became interested in the (random) set of times $t$ such that $B(t)=B(t+1)=0$, where $B(t)$ denotes a standard ...

When is a continuous path stochastic process be representable as diffusion or Ito process?

When can a continuous path (Markovian) stochastic process in one dimension be represented as an Ito or a diffusion process? What are the examples when it can not be?

Tail for the integral of a diffusion process

I would like to compute the following tail, $$ \mathbb{P}\left(\int_{0}^{T} f(X_t)\mathrm{dt}>x\right), $$ assuming $$ \mathbb{P}[f(X_t)>x] = x^{-\alpha} \log(x), $$ and $X$ is a diffusion ...

Fundamental theorem of calculus for iterated stochastic integrals

I'm trying to find the rate (or a bound for it) with which an iterated integral of the type $$\int_{-h}^0 \int_{-h}^{t} A_s d B_s A_t d B_t$$ converges to zero (in probability/distribution) for $h \...

Probability of winding number of 2D Brownian Motion

Let $B_t$ be a 2D Brownian Motion with $B_0 = (1,0)$. Now, express $B_t$ in polars, that is, $B_t = (r(t), \theta(t))$. Let $\tau = \inf\{t > 0 : \theta(t) \geq 2 \pi \}$. What is $\mathbb{P}[\tau \...

Escape Time of Fractional Brownian Motion

Let $B(t)$ be Brownian motion with $B(0)=x>0$ and let $A>x$. It is well known that the expected time for $B(t)$ to escape the interval $[0,A]$ is equal to $x(A-x)$. Is the expected time known ...

What is the characteristic functional for Brownian motion on a sphere?

I'm a physicist, somewhat familiar with stochastic processes, but I'm a little unsure of what follows. What I basically have is a complicated quantity involving a vector that is equivalent to ...

Expectation of the time t standard brownian motion stopped at itself's square

I have a one dimensional standard brownian motion $W$ defined under a stochastic basis with probability $\mathbf{Q}$ and filtration $\left(\mathscr{F}\right)_{t\in{\mathbf{R}}_{+}}$, and I want to ...

Does the strong law of Large Number hold for an infinite dimensional Brownian motion?

For finite-dimensional Brownian motion $W_t$, it is well known that \begin{equation} \lim_{t\to \infty}\frac{W_t}{t}=0,\text{ a.s. }\ \ \ \ \hspace{1cm} \langle 1\rangle \end{equation} Now suppose we ...

Can one use Brownian motion to prove that two manifolds are not conformally equivalent?

Let me start by a very simple example; consider the following question: "Let D1 be a square and D2 a rectangle (boundary included). View them as subsets of the complex plane. Does there exist a ...

Ito Diffusions with low regularity?

I would like to have an Itô Diffusion $$ X_t = \int_0^t b(s) \mathrm{d}s + \int_0^t \sigma(s) \mathrm{d}B_s.$$ where the (vector- and matrix-valued, respectively) functions $b$ and $\sigma$ have lower ...

Can we express a one-dimensional raised Bessel Bridge as a function of a single Brownian Motion?

A Bessel Bridge is a Brownian Motion, conditioned such that $B(0) = B(1) = 0$ and $B([0, 1]) \ge 0$. A raised Bessel Bridge is a generalization of this: it's a Brownian Motion conditioned such that $...

Integrating a Bessel Bridge

Preliminaries An order-3 Bessel Process is the one-dimensional stochastic process $X$ described by $X(t) = \sqrt{W_1(t)^2 + W_2(t)^2 + W_3(t)^2}$, where each $W_k$ is an independent Brownian Motion. ...
