We study a one-dimensional Brownian motion conditioned on a self-repelling behaviour. Given a nondecreasing positive function f(t), consider the measures mu_t obtained by conditioning a Brownian path so that L_s< f(s), for all s<t, where…

Let $\{L^{x}_{t} ; (x,t)\in R^{1}\times R^{1}_{+}\}$ denote the local time of Brownian motion and \[ \alpha_{t}:=\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} (L^{x}_{t})^{2} dx . \] Let $\eta=N(0,1)$ be independent of $\alpha_{t}$. For each fixed $t$ \[…

Let $X$ be a linear diffusion and $f$ a non-negative, Borel measurable function. We are interested in finding conditions on $X$ and $f$ which imply that the perpetual integral functional $$ I^X_\infty(f):=\int_0^\infty f(X_t) dt $$ is…

We consider a super-Brownian motion $\{X_t, t\geq 0\}$ in a random environment described by a centered Gaussian field $\{W(t,x),t\geq 0, x\in\mathbb{R}^d\}$ whose correlation function is given by $\mathcal{C} (x,y)(t \wedge s)$. The process…

Let $\tau$ be the first hitting time of the point 1 by the geometric Brownian motion $X(t)= x \exp(B(t)-2\mu t)$ with drift $\mu \geq 0$ starting from $x>1$. Here $B(t)$ is the Brownian motion starting from 0 with $E^0 B^2(t) = 2t$. We…

Let $T_{c,\beta}$ denote the smallest $t\ge1$ that a continuous, self-similar Gaussian process with self-similarity index $\alpha>0$ moves at least $\pm c t^\beta$ units. We prove that: (i) If $\beta>\alpha$, then $T_{c,\beta}=\infty$ with…

Given a standard Brownian motion $B^{\mu}=(B_t^{\mu})_{0\le t\le T}$ with drift $\mu \in IR$ and letting $g$ denote the last zero of $B^{\mu}$ before $T$, we consider the optimal prediction problem V_*=\inf_{0\le \tau \le T}\mathsf…

In this paper we investigate the class of grey Brownian motions $B_{\alpha,\beta}$ ($0<\alpha<2$, $0<\beta\leq1$). We show that grey Brownian motion admits different representations in terms of certain known processes, such as fractional…

Consider a catalytic super-Brownian motion $X=X^\Gamma$ with finite variance branching. Here `catalytic' means that branching of the reactant $X$ is only possible in the presence of some catalyst. Our intrinsic example of a catalyst is a…

We study branching Brownian motion in hyperbolic space. As hyperbolic Brownian motion is transient, the normalised empirical measure of branching Brownian motion converges to a random measure $\mu_\infty$ on the boundary. We show that the…

Let $B=\{ B_{t}\} _{t\ge 0}$ be a one-dimensional standard Brownian motion, to which we associate the exponential additive functional $A_{t}=\int _{0}^{t}e^{2B_{s}}ds,\,t\ge 0$. Starting from a simple observation of generalized inverse…
