Simulations support the conjecture that the dimension of the trace of Brownian earthworm is strictly greater than 3/2.
Consider two unit balls in a $d$-dimensional flat torus with edge length $r$, for $d\geq 2$. The balls do not move by themselves but they are pushed by a Brownian motion. The balls never intersect---they reflect if they touch. It is proved…
In this note, we study the asymptotical frontier behavior of a branching reflected Brownian motion. There is essentially no difference in maximal displacement between a branching Brownian motion and its reflected counterpart. We provide two…
We study the scenery reconstruction problem on the $d$-dimensional torus, proving that a criterion on Fourier coefficients obtained by Matzinger and Lember (2006) for discrete cycles applies also in continuous spaces. In particular, with…
We prove that reflected Brownian motion with normal reflections in a convex domain satisfies a dimension free Talagrand type transportation cost-information inequality. The result is generalized to other reflected diffusions with suitable…
We give an explicit construction of the Brownian sphere biased by the distance between two distinguished points, which is based on the Miermont bijection for quadrangulations. We then describe various conditionings of this object, which are…
We consider the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplacian on a skinny torus. With its flat metric, a skinny torus has large trace, but we show that there are conformally equivalent metrics making the trace close to that of a sphere…
We estimate rates of convergence for empirical measures associated with the subordinated fractional Brownian motion to the uniform distribution on the flat torus under the Wasserstein distance $\mathbb{W}_p$ for all $p\geq1$. In particular,…
A uniform dimensional result for normally reflected Brownian motion (RBM) in a large class of non-smooth domains is established. Exact Hausdorff dimensions for the boundary occupation time and the boundary trace of RBM are given. Extensions…
We consider the last zero crossing time $T_{\mu,t}$ of a Brownian motion, with drift $\mu \neq 0$ in the time interval $[0, t]$. We prove the large deviation principle of $\{T_{\mu \sqrt r t} : r > 0 \}$ as $r$ tends to infinity. Moreover,…
We discuss the random motion of charged test particles driven by quantum electromagnetic fluctuations at finite temperature in both the unbounded flat space and flat spacetime with a reflecting boundary and calculate the mean squared…
We present a study of the distance between a Brownian motion and a submanifold of a complete Riemannian manifold. We include a variety of results, including an inequality for the Laplacian of the distance function derived from a Jacobian…
Let T(x,r) denote the first hitting time of the disc of radius r centered at x for Brownian motion on the two dimensional torus. We prove that sup_{x} T(x,r)/|log r|^2 --> 2/pi as r --> 0. The same applies to Brownian motion on any smooth,…
We show that a Brownian motion on $\mathbb{R}_{\ge 0}$ which is allowed to spend a total of $s > 0$ time units outside a bounded interval does not leave the interval at all. This can be seen as an extreme example of entropic repulsion.…
The Brownian motion of a test particle interacting with a quantum scalar field in the presence of a perfectly reflecting boundary is studied in (1 + 1)-dimensional flat spacetime. Particularly, the expressions for dispersions in velocity…
We study the radius $R_T$ of a self-repellent fractional Brownian motion $\left\{B^H_t\right\}_{0\le t\le T}$ taking values in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Our sharpest result is for $d=1$, where we find that with high probability, \begin{equation*} R_T…
This note proves that the separation convergence towards the uniform distribution abruptly occurs at times around ln(n)/n for the (time-accelerated by 2) Brownian motion on the sphere with a high dimension n. The arguments are based on a…
We show that if the entropy of any closed hypersurface is close to that of a round hyper-sphere, then it is close to a round sphere in Hausdorff distance. Generalizing the result of \cite{BW1} to higher dimensions.
Many studies on microscopic systems deal with Brownian particles embedded in media whose densities are different from that of the particles, causing them either to sink or float. The proximity to a wall modifies the friction force the…
We establish an integral test describing the exact cut-off between recurrence and transience for normally reflected Brownian motion in certain unbounded domains in a class of warped product manifolds. Besides extending a previous result by…
