We derive the moments of the first passage time for Brownian motion conditioned by either the maximum value or the area swept out by the motion. These quantities are the natural counterparts to the moments of the maximum value and area of…
We give a characterization of the relaxation time up to an absolute constant factor, in terms of stationary expected hitting times of large sets. This resolves a conjecture of Aldous and Fill. We give a similar characterization for the…

We solve the problem concerning a time optimal return of a particle with a prescribed velocity to the origin by applying a magnitude-bounded force. The equations of controlled motion are derived and explicitly integrated, and the optimal…
We calculate the probability $p_c$ that the maximum of a reflected Brownian motion $U$ is achieved on a complete excursion, i.e. $p_c:=P\big(\overline{U}(t)=U^*(t)\big)$ where $\overline{U}(t)$ (respectively $U^*(t)$) is the maximum of the…
We study the density of the time average of the Brownian meander/excursion over the time interval [0,1]. Moreover we give an expression for the Brownian meander/excursion conditioned to have a fixed time average.
We define the reflection of a random walk at a general barrier and derive, in case the increments are light tailed and have negative mean, a necessary and sufficient criterion for the global maximum of the reflected process to be finite…
Let $\{B(t), t \geq 0\}$ be a standard Brownian motion in $\mathbb{R}$. Let $T$ be the first return time to 0 after hitting 1, and $\{L(T,x), x \in \mathbb{R}\}$ be the local time process at time $T$ and level $x$. The distribution of…
A uniform dimensional result for normally reflected Brownian motion (RBM) in a large class of non-smooth domains is established. Exact Hausdorff dimensions for the boundary occupation time and the boundary trace of RBM are given. Extensions…
This paper extends previous work by the authors. We consider the local time process of a strong Markov process, add negative drift, and reflect it \`a la Skorokhod. The resulting process is used to model a fluid queue. We derive an…
We describe the size of the sets of sojourn times $E_\gamma =\{t\geq 0: |B_t|\leq t^\gamma\}$ associated with a fractional Brownian motion $B$ in terms of various large scale dimensions.
It is proved that generalized excursion measures can be constructed via time change of Ito's Brownian excursion measure. A tightness-like condition on strings is introduced to prove a convergence theorem of generalized excursion measures.…
Consider p independent Brownian motions in R^d, each running up to its first exit time from an open domain B, and their intersection local time l as a measure on B. We give a sharp criterion for the finiteness of exponential moments,…
We provide the first rate of convergence analysis for RBM as the dimension grows under natural uniformity conditions. In particular, if the underlying routing matrix is uniformly contractive, uniform stability of the drift vector holds, and…
