We derive several explicit distributions of functionals of Brownian motion indexed by the Brownian tree. In particular, we give a direct proof of a result of Bousquet-M\'elou and Janson identifying the distribution of the density at 0 of…

Braverman, Mallows and Shepp (1995), showed that if the absolute moments of partial sums of i.i.d. symmetric variables are equal to those of normal variables, then the marginals have normal distribution. This fact suggested the conjecture…

We extend to the vector-valued situation some earlier work of Ciesielski and Roynette on the Besov regularity of the paths of the classical Brownian motion. We also consider a Brownian motion as a Besov space valued random variable. It…

In this note, by an elementary use of Girsanov's transform we show that the exit time for either a biased random walk or a drifted Brownian motion on a symmetric interval is stochastically monotone with respect to the drift parameter. In…

We extend a model of positive feedback and contagion in large mean-field systems, by introducing a common source of noise driven by Brownian motion. Although the driving dynamics are continuous, the positive feedback effect can lead to…

We study the norm of the two-dimensional Brownian motion conditioned to stay outside the unit disk at all times. By conditioning the process is changed from barely recurrent to slightly transient. We obtain sharp results on the rate of…

We prove change of variables formulas [It\^o formulas] for functions of both arithmetic and geometric averages of geometric fractional Brownian motion. They are valid for all convex functions, not only for smooth ones. These change of…

Let B be a Brownian motion and T its first hitting time of the level 1. For U a uniform random variable independent of B, we study in depth the distribution of T^{-1/2}B_{UT}, that is the rescaled Brownian motion sampled at uniform time. In…

We provide a solution to the problem of optimal transport by Brownian martingales in general dimensions whenever the transport cost satisfies certain subharmonic properties in the target variable, as well as a stochastic version of the…

This paper presents the general form and essential properties of the q-optimal measure following the approach of Delbaen and Schachermayer (1996) and proves its existence under mild conditions. Most importantly, it states a necessary and…

Let X be the solution of the multidimensional stochastic differential equationdX(t) = b(t, X(t)) dt + sigma(t, X(t)) dW(t)\, with X(0)=x where W is a standard Brownian motion. We show that when b is measurable and sigma is in an appropriate…

Assume that $X$ is a continuous square integrable process with zero mean, defined on some probability space $(\Omega,\mathrm {F},\mathrm {P})$. The classical characterization due to P. L\'{e}vy says that $X$ is a Brownian motion if and only…

We consider the Brown measure of the free circular Brownian motion, $\boldsymbol{a}+\sqrt{t}\boldsymbol{x}$, with an arbitrary initial condition $\boldsymbol{a}$, i.e. $\boldsymbol{a}$ is a general non-normal operator and $\boldsymbol{x}$…

We are interested in existence of solutions to the $d$-dimensional equation \begin{equation*} X_t=x_0+\int_0^t b(X_s)ds + B_t, \end{equation*} where $B$ is a (fractional) Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H\leqslant 1/2$ and $b$ is an…

In this work, we establish a Trotter-Kato type theorem. More precisely, we characterize the convergence in distribution of Feller processes by examining the convergence of their generators. The main novelty lies in providing quantitative…

We will consider the following stochastic differential equation (SDE): \begin{equation} X_t=X_0+\int_0^tb(X_s,\theta_0)ds+\sigma B_t,~~~t\in(0,T], \end{equation} where $\{B_t\}_{t\ge 0}$ is a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst index…

It is shown that the law of an SDE driven by fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter greater than 1/2 has a smooth density with respect to Lebesgue measure, provided that the driving vector fields satisfy H\"ormander's condition.…

In this paper, with the help of a result by Matsumoto--Yor (2000), we prove a Girsanov-type formula for a class of anticipative transforms of Brownian motion which possesses exponential functionals as anticipating factors. Our result…

We prove that every directionally transient random walk in random i.i.d.\ environment, under condition $(T)_{\gamma}$, which admits an annealed functional limit towards Brownian motion also admits the corresponding quenched limit in $d \ge…
