Anomalous diffusion is an established phenomenon but still a theoretical challenge in non-equilibrium statistical mechanics. Physical models are built incrementally, and the most recent and most general family is based on the fractional…
We derive a semi-analytic formula for the transition probability of three-dimensional Brownian motion in the positive octant with absorption at the boundaries. Separation of variables in spherical coordinates leads to an eigenvalue problem…
We show a concise extension of the monotone stability approach to backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) that are jointly driven by a Brownian motion and a random measure for jumps, which could be of infinite activity with a…
For $d \in \{1,2,3\}$, let $(B^d_t;~ t \geq 0)$ be a $d$-dimensional standard Brownian motion. We study the $d$-Brownian span set $Span(d):=\{t-s;~ B^d_s=B^d_t~\mbox{for some}~0 \leq s \leq t\}$. We prove that almost surely the random set…
Let $B =\{ B_t \, : \, t \geq 0 \}$ be a real-valued fractional Brownian motion of index $H \in (0,1)$. We prove that the macroscopic Hausdorff dimension of the level sets $\mathcal{L}_x = \left\{ t \in \mathbb{R}_+ \, : \, B_t=x \right\}$…
We provide a simple proof, as well as several generalizations, of a recent result by Davis and Suh, characterizing a class of continuous submartingales and supermartingales that can be expressed in terms of a squared Brownian motion and of…
This paper provides estimates for the convergence rate of the total variation distance in the framework of the Breuer-Major theorem, assuming some smoothness properties of the underlying function. The results are proved by applying new…
A recently proposed alternative to multifractional Brownian motion (mBm) with random Hurst exponent is studied, which we refer to as It\^o-mBm. It is shown that It\^o-mBm is locally self-similar. In contrast to mBm, its pathwise regularity…
We systematically develop general tools to apply Fukushima's absolute continuity condition. These tools comprise methods to obtain a Hunt process on a locally compact separable metric state space whose transition function has a density…
Fractional Brownian motion is a self-affine, non-Markovian and translationally invariant generalization of Brownian motion, depending on the Hurst exponent $H$. Here we investigate fractional Brownian motion where both the starting and the…
We use reflecting Brownian motion (RBM) to prove the well known Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorem for a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. The boundary integrand is obtained by carefully analyzing the asymptotic behavior of the boundary…

In this paper we study the existence and uniqueness of the strong solution of following d dimensional stochastic differential equation (SDE) driven by Brownian motion: dX(t)=b(t,X(t))dt+a(t,X(t))dB(t), X(0)= x, where B is a d-dimensional…
In this paper we study weak solutions for the following type of stochastic differential equation \[ dX_{t}=dW_{t}+b(t, X_{t})dt, \quad t\ge s, \quad X_{s}=x, \] where $b: [0,\infty) \times \mathbb{R}^{d} \to \mathbb{R}^{d}$ is a measurable…
We study some functional inequalities satisfied by the distribution of the solution of a stochastic differential equation driven by fractional Brownian motions. Such functional inequalities are obtained through new integration by parts…
In this paper we study the sojourn time on the positive half-line up to time $ t $ of a drifted Brownian motion with starting point $ u $ and subject to the condition that $ \min_{ 0\leq z \leq l} B(z)> v $, with $ u > v $. This process is…
We condition a Brownian motion with arbitrary starting point $y \in \mathbb{R}$ on spending at most $1$ time unit below $0$ and provide an explicit description of the resulting process. In particular, we provide explicit formulas for the…
We consider a standard binary branching Brownian motion on the real line. It is known that the maximal position $M_t$ among all particles alive at time $t$, shifted by $m_t = \sqrt{2} t - \frac{3}{2\sqrt{2}} \log t$ converges in law to a…
It is known from Bramson (1983) that the maximum of branching Brownian motion at time $t$ is asymptotically around an explicit function $m_t$, which involves a first ballistic order and a logarithmic correction. In this paper, we give an…
