We introduce a natural family of random walks on the set of integers that scale to fractional Brownian motion. The increments X_n have the property that given {X_k: k < n}, the conditional law of X_n is that of X_{n-k_n}, where k_n is…

Bifractional Brownian motion on $\mathbb{R}_+$ is a two parameter centered Gaussian process with covariance function: \[ R_{H,K} (t,s)=\frac 1{2^K}\left(\left(t^{2H}+s^{2H}\right)^K-\ |{t-s}\ |^{2HK}\right), \qquad s,t\ge 0. \] This process…

Sticky Brownian motion is the simplest example of a diffusion process that can spend finite time both in the interior of a domain and on its boundary. It arises in various applications such as in biology, materials science, and finance.…

A multifractal random walk (MRW) is defined by a Brownian motion subordinated by a class of continuous multifractal random measures $M[0,t], 0\le t\le1$. In this paper we obtain an extension of this process, referred to as multifractal…
