Given the variable-speed random walk on a weighted graph and a metric adapted to the structure of the random walk, we construct a Brownian motion on a closely related metric graph which behaves similarly to the VSRW and for which the…
In this paper we consider a connection between the famous Skorohod embedding problem and the Shiryaev inverse problem for the first hitting time distribution of a Brownian motion: given a probability distribution, $F$, find a boundary such…
This work contributes a systematic survey and complementary insights of reflecting Brownian motion and its properties. Extension of the Skorohod problem's solution to more general cases is investigated, based on which a discussion is…
We define a natural conformally invariant measure on unrooted Brownian loops in the plane and study some of its properties. We relate this measure to a measure on loops rooted at a boundary point of a domain and show how this relation gives…
We solve the Skorokhod embedding problem for a class of Gaussian processes including Brownian motion with non-linear drift. Our approach relies on solving an associated strongly coupled system of Forward Backward Stochastic Differential…
The focus in this work is on interior-point methods for inequality-constrained quadratic programs, and particularly on the system of nonlinear equations to be solved for each value of the barrier parameter. Newton iterations give high…
We construct a $K$-rough path above either a space-time or a spatial fractional Brownian motion, in any space dimension $d$. This allows us to provide an interpretation and a unique solution for the corresponding parabolic Anderson model,…
We develop an interior-point method for nonsmooth regularized bound-constrained optimization problems. Our method consists of iteratively solving a sequence of unconstrained nonsmooth barrier subproblems. We use a variant of the proximal…

We derive explicit formulas for probabilities of Brownian motion with jumps crossing linear or piecewise linear boundaries in any finite interval. We then use these formulas to approximate the boundary crossing probabilities for general…
Models of particle dynamics based on Brownian motion and its variants are a rich source of insights into the stochastic behaviour of complex condensed phase systems. In this paper we use one such variant - a breathing parabola with an…
Embedding non-Markovian open quantum dynamics into an enlarged Markovian space offers a powerful route to nonperturbative simulations, where the dynamics of the extended space can be governed by multiple distinct Markovian equations. We…
We introduce fractional Brownian motion processes (fBm) as an alternative model for the turbulent index of refraction. These processes allow to reconstruct most of the refractive index properties, but they are not differentiable. We…
An extension of the stochastic quantization scheme is proposed by adding nonlinear terms to the field equations. Our modification is motivated by the recently established theory of active Brownian motion. We discuss a way of promoting this…
We give the exact solution to the problem of a random walk on the Bethe lattice through a mapping on an asymmetric random walk on the half-line. We also study the continuous limit of this model, and discuss in detail the relation between…
Recent work of Dupire and Carr and Lee has highlighted the importance of understanding the Skorokhod embedding originally proposed by Root for the model-independent hedging of variance options. Root's work shows that there exists a barrier…
For classical finite time horizon stopping problems driven by a Brownian motion \[V(t,x) = \sup_{t\leq\tau\leq0}E_{(t,x)}[g(\tau,W_{\tau})],\] we derive a new class of Fredholm type integral equations for the stopping set. For large problem…
Two regeneration-based bootstrap methods, namely, the \textit{Regeneration based-bootstrap} \cite{AthreyaFuh1992, Somnat-1993} and the \textit{Regenerative Block bootstrap} \cite{Bertail2006} are shown to be valid for the problem of…
Given a Brownian motion $B_t$ and a general target law $\mu$ (not necessarily centered or even integrable) we show how to construct an embedding of $\mu$ in $B$. This embedding is an extension of an embedding due to Perkins, and is optimal…
