Abstract

We investigate distributions of hyperbolic Bessel processes. We find links between the hyperbolic cosine of hyperbolic Bessel processes and functionals of geometric Brownian motion. We present an explicit formula for the Laplace transform of the hyperbolic cosine of a hyperbolic Bessel process and some other interesting probabilistic representations of this Laplace transform. We express the one-dimensional distribution of a hyperbolic Bessel process in terms of other, known and independent processes. We present some applications including a new proof of Bougerol's identity and its generalization. We characterize the distribution of the process which is the hyperbolic sine of hyperbolic Bessel process.
