A simple construction of the Fractional Brownian motion

Abstract

In this work we introduce correlated random walks on Z\Z. When picking suitably at random the coefficient of correlation, and taking the average over a large number of walks, we obtain a discrete Gaussian process, whose scaling limit is the fractional Brownian motion. We have to use two radically different models for both cases 12H<1{1\over2}\leq H<1 and 0<H<120<H<{1\over2}. This result provides an algorithm for the simulation of the fractional Brownian motion, which appears to be quite efficient.
