We study a (relativistic) Wiener process on a complexified (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold. Using Nelson's stochastic quantization procedure, we derive three equivalent descriptions for this problem. If the process has a purely real quadratic…

We lay the theoretical and mathematical foundations of the square root of Browniam motion and we prove the existence of such a process. In doing so, we consider Brownian motion on quantized noncommutative Riemannian manifolds and show how a…
