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 characterize the asymptotic behaviour of the weighted power variation processes associated with iterated Brownian motion. We prove weak convergence results in the sense of finite dimensional distributions, and show that the laws of the…
We consider $n$ independent, identically distributed one-dimensional Brownian motions, $B_j(t)$, where $B_j(0)$ has a rapidly decreasing, smooth density function $f$. The empirical quantiles, or pointwise order statistics, are denoted by…
We consider a standard one-dimensional Brownian motion on the time interval $[0,1]$ conditioned to have vanishing iterated time integrals up to order $N$. We show that the resulting processes can be expressed explicitly in terms of shifted…
Consider a sequence of n bi-infinite and stationary Brownian queues in tandem. Assume that the arrival process entering in the first queue is a zero mean ergodic process. We prove that the departure process from the n-th queue converges in…
We derive general results on the small deviation behavior for some classes of iterated processes. This allows us, in particular, to calculate the rate of the small deviations for $n$-iterated Brownian motions and, more generally, for the…
We consider a Markov-modulated Brownian motion reflected to stay in a strip [0,B]. The stationary distribution of this process is known to have a simple form under some assumptions. We provide a short probabilistic argument leading to this…
For a random walk defined for a doubly infinite sequence of times, we let the time parameter itself be an integer-valued process, and call the orginal process a random walk at random time. We find the scaling limit which generalizes the…
We extend generalized isoperimetric-type inequalities to iterated Brownian motion over several domains in $\RR{R}^{n}$. These kinds of inequalities imply in particular that for domains of finite volume, the exit distribution and moments of…
Suppose a solid has a crack filled with a gas. If the crack reaches the surrounding medium, how long does it take the gas to diffuse out of the crack? Iterated Brownian motion serves as a model for diffusion in a crack. If \tau is the first…
In this paper the solutions $u_{\nu}=u_{\nu}(x,t)$ to fractional diffusion equations of order $0<\nu \leq 2$ are analyzed and interpreted as densities of the composition of various types of stochastic processes. For the fractional equations…
We introduce a two-parameter family of diffusion processes $(B_{r,s}^N(t))_{t\ge 0}$, $r,s>0$, on the general linear group $\mathbb{GL}_N$ that are Brownian motions with respect to certain natural metrics on the group. At the same time, we…
Consider an multidimensional obliquely reflected Brownian motion in the positive orthant, or, more generally, in a convex polyhedral cone. We find sufficient conditions for existence of a stationary distribution and convergence to this…
Consider two unit balls in a $d$-dimensional flat torus with edge length $r$, for $d\geq 2$. The balls do not move by themselves but they are pushed by a Brownian motion. The balls never intersect---they reflect if they touch. It is proved…
In this paper we investigate three discrete or semi-discrete approximation schemes for reflected Brownian motion on bounded Euclidean domains. For a class of bounded domains $D$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that includes all bounded Lipschitz domains…
We study interacting systems of linear Brownian motions whose drift vector at every time point is determined by the relative ranks of the coordinate processes at that time. Our main objective has been to study the long range behavior of the…
Consider a system of infinitely many Brownian particles on the real line. At any moment, these particles can be ranked from the bottom upward. Each particle moves as a Brownian motion with drift and diffusion coefficients depending on its…
Consider a time-varying collection of n points on the positive real axis, modeled as exponentials of n Brownian motions whose drift vector at every time point is determined by the relative ranks of the coordinate processes at that time. If…
In this paper we study the rate of convergence of the iterates of \iid random piecewise constant monotone maps to the time-$1$ transport map for the process of coalescing Brownian motions. We prove that the rate of convergence is given by a…
We consider a family of hard core objects moving as independent Brownian motions confined to a vessel by reflection. These are subject to gravitational forces modeled by drifts. The stationary distribution for the process has many…
