Let $W$ be a one-dimensional Brownian motion starting from 0. Define $Y(t)= \int_0^t{\d s \over W(s)} := \lim_{\epsilon\to0} \int_0^t 1_{(|W(s)|> \epsilon)} {\d s \over W(s)} $ as Cauchy's principal value related to local time. We prove…

Since Albert Einstein's seminal 1905-paper on Brownian motion, the temperature of fluids and gases of known viscosity can be deduced from observations of the fluctuations of small suspended probe particles. We summarize recent…

Using a time-averaging technique we obtain exactly the probability distribution for position and velocity of a Brownian particle under the influence of two heat baths at different temperatures. These baths are expressed by a white noise…

We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the record set of a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H$ equals $H$.

We investigate the emergence of temperature $T$ in the system-plus-reservoir paradigm starting from the fundamental microcanonical scenario at total fixed energy $E$ where, contrary to the canonical approach, $T=T(E)$ is not a control…

We consider a branching Brownian motion evolving in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove that the asymptotic behaviour of the maximal displacement is given by a first ballistic order, plus a logarithmic correction that increases with the dimension $d$.…

A classical model of Brownian motion consists of a heavy molecule submerged into a gas of light atoms in a closed container. In this work we study a 2D version of this model, where the molecule is a heavy disk of mass M and the gas is…

The paper deals with exponential functionals of the linear Brownian motion which arise in different contexts such as continuous time finance models and one-dimensional disordered models. We study some properties of these exponential…

This paper investigates $\pi_T(a_1,a_2) = \mathbb{P}\left(\sup\limits_{t\in[0,T]} (\sigma_1B(t)-c_1t)>a_1, \sup\limits_{t\in[0,T]}( \sigma_2 B(t)-c_2t)>a_2\right),$ where $\{B(t) : t \geq 0\}$ is a standard Brownian motion, with $T >0,…

For $f: [0,1]\to \R$, we consider $L^f_t$, the local time of space-time Brownian motion on the curve $f$. Let $\sS_\al$ be the class of all functions whose H\"older norm of order $\al$ is less than or equal to 1. We show that the supremum…

We develop a theory of Brownian motion of a massive particle, including the effects of inertia (Kramers' problem), in spaces with curvature and torsion. This is done by invoking the recently discovered generalized equivalence principle,…

We describe the classes of functions $f=(f(x), x\in R)$, for which processes $f(W_t)-Ef(W_t)$ and $f(W_t)/Ef(W_t)$ are martingales. We apply these results to give a martingale characterization of general solutions of the quadratic and the…

A Hamiltonian formulation for the Grosse-Wulkenhaar $\phi^{4}_{\star D}$ model is performed. The study is based on $D+1$ dimensional space-time formulation of $D$ dimensional non-local theories. The analysis of constraints shows that the…

The signature of a $d$-dimensional Brownian motion is a sequence of iterated Stratonovich integrals along the Brownian paths, an object taking values in the tensor algebra over $\RR^{d}$. In this note, we derive the exact rate of…

Nils Tongring (1987) proved sufficient conditions for a compact set to contain $k$-tuple points of a Brownian motion. In this paper, we extend these findings to the fractional Brownian motion. Using the property of strong local…

We derive a general quantum formula giving the mean-square displacement of a diffusing particle as a function of time. Near {\bf 0 K} we find a universal logarithmic behavior (valid for times longer than the relaxation time), and deviations…

Let $\{B_H(t):t\ge 0\}$ be a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H\in(\frac{1}{2},1)$. For the storage process $Q_{B_H}(t)=\sup_{-\infty\le s\le t} \left(B_H(t)-B_H(s)-c(t-s)\right)$ we show that, for any $T(u)>0$ such that…

The 'absolute stiff' matter ($P=E$) can be a Fermi or Bose gas of particles with the energy spectrum $\epsilon_p \sim p^q$ in $q$-dimensional space, particularly $\epsilon_p =p^3/m^2$ in 3-dimensional space. We obtain its pressure, particle…
