We study the random metric space called the Brownian plane, which is closely related to the Brownian map and is conjectured to be the universal scaling limit of many discrete random lattices such as the uniform infinite planar…
We present a novel computational method of first-passage times between a starting site and a target site of regular bounded lattices. We derive accurate expressions for all the moments of this first-passage time, validated by numerical…
The first-passage problem of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process to a boundary is a long-standing problem with no known closed-form solution except in specific cases. Taking this as a starting-point, and extending to a general mean-reverting…
We establish a general formula for the Laplace transform of the hitting times of a Gaussian process. Some consequences are derived, and particular cases like the fractional Brownian motion are discussed.
Given a Wiener process with unknown and unobservable drift, we try to estimate this drift as effectively but also as quickly as possible, in the presence of a quadratic penalty for the estimation error and of a fixed, positive cost per unit…
In this note we investigate the behaviour of Brownian motion conditioned on a growth constraint of its local time which has been previously investigated by Berestycki and Benjamini. For a class of non-decreasing positive functions $f(t);…
An initial-value problem for arbitrary small 3D vorticity perturbations imposed on a free shear flow is considered. The viscous perturbation equations are then combined in terms of the vorticity and velocity, and are solved by means of a…
For a regular transient diffusion, we provide a decomposition of its last passage time to a certain state $\alpha$. This is accomplished by transforming the original diffusion into two diffusions using the occupation time of the area above…
In this paper we study the local times of Brownian motion from the point of view of algorithmic randomness. We introduce the notion of effective local time and show that any path which is Martin-L\"of random with respect to the Wiener…
We establish that Laplace transforms of the posterior Dirichlet process converge to those of the limiting Brownian bridge process in a neighbourhood about zero, uniformly over Glivenko-Cantelli function classes. For real-valued random…

Under some weak conditions, the first-passage time of the Brownian motion to a continuous curved boundary is an almost surely finite stopping time. Its probability density function (pdf) is explicitly known only in few particular cases.…
We prove strong existence and uniqueness for a reflection process $X$ in a smooth, bounded domain $D$ that behaves like obliquely-reflected-Brownian-motion, except that the direction of reflection depends on a (spin) parameter $S$, which…
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…
We consider local singular perturbations of a one-dimensional Laplace operator from the point of view of semigroup theory. Under certain assumptions, we prove the convergence of the corresponding semigroups to the heat semigroup with…
Using the De Finetti representation of the Curie-Weiss model, the uniform coupling of Bernoulli random variables and the Laplace inversion formula (almost surely), we show that the full phase diagram of the Curie-Weiss model can be…
We have proved in a previous paper that a space-time Brownian motion conditioned to remain in a Weyl chamber associated to an affine Kac-Moody Lie algebra is distributed as the radial part process of a Brownian sheet on the compact real…
The Laplace transforms of the transition probability density and distribution functions for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process contain the product of two parabolic cylinder functions, namely D_{v}(x)D_{v}(y) and D_{v}(x)D_{v-1}(y),…
The first-exit time process of an inverse Gaussian L\'evy process is considered. The one-dimensional distribution functions of the process are obtained. They are not infinitely divisible and the tail probabilities decay exponentially. These…
