It is well known that for a standard Brownian motion (BM) $ \{B(t), \;t \geq 0\}$ with values in $\mathbb{R}^d$, its convex hull $ V(t)=\conv \{\{\,B(s),\;s \leq t \}$ with probability $1$ for each $t > 0$ contains $0$ as an interior point…

We show that the convex hull of the path of Brownian motion in $n$-dimensions, up to time $1$, is a smooth set. As a consequence, we conclude that a Brownian motion in any dimension almost surely has no cone points for any cone whose dual…
Let K be the convex hull of the path of a standard brownian motion B(t) in R^n, taken at time 0 < t < 1. We derive formulas for the expected volume and surface area of K. Moreover, we show that in order to approximate K by a discrete…
We study the effect of confinement on the mean perimeter of the convex hull of a planar Brownian motion, defined as the minimum convex polygon enclosing the trajectory. We use a minimal model where an infinite reflecting wall confines the…

Fractional Brownian motion is a non-Markovian Gaussian process $X_t$, indexed by the Hurst exponent $H$. It generalises standard Brownian motion (corresponding to $H=1/2$). We study the probability distribution of the maximum $m$ of the…
We study various properties of the convex hull of a planar Brownian motion, defined as the minimum convex polygon enclosing the trajectory, in the presence of an infinite reflecting wall. Recently, in a Rapid Communication [Phys. Rev. E…
Consider the first exit time of one-dimensional Brownian motion $\{B_s\}_{s\geq 0}$ from a random passageway. We discuss a Brownian motion with two time-dependent random boundaries in quenched sense. Let $\{W_s\}_{s\geq 0}$ be an other…
We relate the expected hyperbolic length of the perimeter of the convex hull of the trajectory of Brownian motion in the hyperbolic plane to an expectation of a certain exponential functional of a one-dimensional real-valued Brownian…
Let B_1,B_2, ... be independent one-dimensional Brownian motions defined over the whole real line such that B_i(0)=0. We consider the nth iterated Brownian motion W_n(t)= B_n(B_{n-1}(...(B_2(B_1(t)))...)). Although the sequences of…
We prove two-sided bounds on the expected values of several geometric functionals of the convex hull of Brownian motion in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and their inverse processes. This extends some recent results of McRedmond and Xu (2017),…

For the perimeter length and the area of the convex hull of the first $n$ steps of a planar random walk, we study $n \to \infty$ mean and variance asymptotics and establish non-Gaussian distributional limits. Our results apply to random…
Lower and upper estimates are given for the probability that the epsilon-enlargement of planar Brownian motion to time 1 (the epsilon sausage) contains a unit line segment. The estimates imply that Brownian motion to time 1 itself contains…
