We study a notion of local time for a continuous path, defined as a limit of suitable discrete quantities along a general sequence of partitions of the time interval. Our approach subsumes other existing definitions and agrees with the…

For a random walk $S_n, n\geq 0$ in $\mathbb{Z}^d$, let $l(n,x)$ be its local time at the site $x\in \mathbb{Z}^d$. Define the $\alpha$-fold self intersection local time $L_n(\alpha) := \sum_{x} l(n,x)^{\alpha}$, and let…

For a random walk defined for a doubly infinite sequence of times, we let the time parameter itself be an integer-valued process, and call the orginal process a random walk at random time. We find the scaling limit which generalizes the…

The aim of this paper is to represent any continuous local martingale as an almost sure limit of a nested sequence of simple, symmetric random walks, time changed by a discrete quadratic variation process. One basis of this is a similar…

We study dynamic random conductance models on $\mathbb{Z}^2$ in which the environment evolves as a reversible Markov process that is stationary under space-time shifts. We prove under a second moment assumption that two conditionally…

We show that the local time of one-dimensional super-Brownian motion is locally $\gamma$-H\"older continuous near the boundary if $0<\gamma<3$ and fails to be locally $\gamma$-H\"older continuous if $\gamma>3$.

Fix $p>1$, not necessarily integer, with $p(d-2)<d$. We study the $p$-fold self-intersection local time of a simple random walk on the lattice $\Z^d$ up to time $t$. This is the $p$-norm of the vector of the walker's local times, $\ell_t$.…

Let $B^{H, K}= \big\{B^{H, K}(t), t \in \R_+ \big\}$ be a bifractional Brownian motion in $\R^d$. We prove that $B^{H, K}$ is strongly locally nondeterministic. Applying this property and a stochastic integral representation of $B^{H, K}$,…

We prove the strong convergence of the spectrum of the kinetic Brownian motion to the spectrum of base Laplacian for a large class of compact locally Riemannian homogeneous spaces, in particular all compact locally symmetric spaces. This…

We study Poissonian ensembles of Markov loops and the associated renormalized self-intersection local times.

Consider p independent Brownian motions in R^d, each running up to its first exit time from an open domain B, and their intersection local time l as a measure on B. We give a sharp criterion for the finiteness of exponential moments,…

The global extendibility of smooth causal geodesically incomplete spacetimes is investigated. Denote by $\gamma$ one of the incomplete non-extendible causal geodesics of a causal geodesically incomplete spacetime $(M,g_{ab})$. First, it is…

It is well known that Brownian motion enjoys several distributional invariances such as the scaling property and the time reversal. In this paper, we prove another invariance of Brownian motion that is compatible with the time reversal. The…
