We study a Brownian excursion on the time interval $\left|t\right|\leq T$, conditioned to stay above a moving wall $x_{0}\left(t\right)$ such that $x_0\left(-T\right)=x_0\left(T\right)=0$, and $x_{0}\left(\left|t\right|<T\right)>0$. For a…

A discrete Gibbsian line ensemble $\mathfrak{L} = (L_1,\dots,L_N)$ consists of $N$ independent random walks on the integers conditioned not to cross one another, i.e., $L_1 \geq \cdots \geq L_N$. In this paper we provide sufficient…

Discrete time random walks, in which a step of random sign but constant length $\delta x$ is performed after each time interval $\delta t$, are widely used models for stochastic processes. In the case of a correlated random walk, the next…
