We investigate reflected random walks in the quarter plane, with particular emphasis on the time spent along the reflection boundary axes. Assuming the drift of the random walk lies within the cone, the local time converges -- without the…

If \beta_t is renormalized self-intersection local time for planar Brownian motion, we characterize when Ee^{\gamma\beta_1} is finite or infinite in terms of the best constant of a Gagliardo-Nirenberg inequality. We prove large deviation…

In this paper we consider a (reflected) Brownian motion with broken drift hitting a random boundary. Some dedicated calculations allow us to obtain the formula on the joint Laplace transform of the hitting time and hitting position. These…

In this note, we establish the bounds \[ c\varepsilon^{\frac23}\le P\bigg\{\int_0^1\!\!\int_0^1\delta_0(B_s-\tilde{B}_r)dsdr\le \varepsilon \bigg\} \le C \varepsilon^{\frac23},\] for the mutual intersection local time of two independent…

The derivative of self-intersection local time (DSLT) for Brownian motion was introduced by Rosen and subsequently used by others to study the $L^2$ and $L^3$ moduli of continuity of Brownian local time. A version of the DSLT for fractional…

Let B_n be the number of self-intersections of a symmetric random walk with finite second moments in the integer planar lattice. We obtain moderate deviation estimates for B_n - E B_n and E B_n- B_n, which are given in terms of the best…

We give a lower bound for the non-collision probability up to a long time T in a system of n independent random walks with fixed obstacles on the two-dimensional lattice. By `collision' we mean collision between the random walks as well as…

We show that local times of super-Brownian motion, or of Brownian motion indexed by the Brownian tree, satisfy an explicit stochastic differential equation. Our proofs rely on both excursion theory for the Brownian snake and tools from the…

We present an analytical approach to study simple symmetric random walks (RWs) on a crossing geometry consisting of a plane square lattice crossed by $n_l$ number of lines that all meet each other at a single point (the origin) on the…

For generalized Dyck paths (i.e., directed lattice paths with any finite set of jumps), we analyse their local time at zero (i.e., the number of times the path is touching or crossing the abscissa). As we are in a discrete setting, the…

Let $\{B_t,t\geq0\}$ be a d-dimensional Brownian motion. We prove that the approximation of the higher derivative of renormalized self-intersection local time $$…

Under some weak conditions, the first-passage time of the Brownian motion to a continuous curved boundary is an almost surely finite stopping time. Its probability density function (pdf) is explicitly known only in few particular cases.…

This paper examines the existence of the self-intersection local time for a superprocess over a stochastic flow in dimensions $d\leq3$, which through constructive methods, results in a Tanaka-like representation. The superprocess over a…

Let $L_n^{X}(x)$ denote the number of visits to $x \in {\bf Z}^2$ of the simple planar random walk $X$, up till step $n$. Let $X'$ be another simple planar random walk independent of $X$. We show that for any $0<b<1/(2 \pi)$, there are…

Let $\{B_{t}\}_{t\geq0}$ be a $d$-dimensional fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $0<H<1$, where $d\geq2$. Consider the approximation of the self-intersection local time of $B$, defined as \begin{align*} I_{T}^{\varepsilon}…

We consider Random Walk in Random Scenery, denoted $X_n$, where the random walk is symmetric on $Z^d$, with $d>4$, and the random field is made up of i.i.d random variables with a stretched exponential tail decay, with exponent $\alpha$…

We prove a general result on a relationship between a limit of normalized numbers of interval crossings by a c\`adl\`ag path and an occupation measure associated with this path. Using this result we define local times of fractional Brownian…

We study systems of Brownian particles on the real line, which interact by splitting the local times of collisions among themselves in an asymmetric manner. We prove the strong existence and uniqueness of such processes and identify them…

In this work we introduce correlated random walks on $\Z$. When picking suitably at random the coefficient of correlation, and taking the average over a large number of walks, we obtain a discrete Gaussian process, whose scaling limit is…
