We study a (relativistic) Wiener process on a complexified (pseudo-)Riemannian manifold. Using Nelson's stochastic quantization procedure, we derive three equivalent descriptions for this problem. If the process has a purely real quadratic…

We identify the distribution of a natural triplet associated with the pseudo-Brownian bridge. In particular, for $B$ a Brownian motion and $T_1$ its first hitting time of the level one, this remarkable law allows us to understand some…

The original density is 1 for $t\in (0,1)$, $b$ is an integer base ($b\geq 2$%), and $p\in (0,1)$ is a parameter. The first construction stage divides the unit interval into $b$ subintervals and multiplies the density in each subinterval by…

We have formulated higher-order integration by parts formulae on the path space restricted between two curves, with respect to pinned/ordinary Wiener measures. The higher-order integration by parts formulae introduce nontrivial boundary…

We give a proof of a result on the growth of the number of particles along chosen paths in a branching Brownian motion. The work follows the approach of classical large deviations results, in which paths in $C[0,1]$ are rescaled onto…

The Brownian sphere is a random metric space, homeomorphic to the two-dimensional sphere, which arises as the universal scaling limit of many types of random planar maps. The direct construction of the Brownian sphere is via a continuous…

Given a Brownian path $\beta(t)$ on $\mathbb{R}$, starting at $1$, a.s. there is a singular time set $T_{\beta}$, such that the first hitting time of $\beta$ by an independent Brownian motion, starting at $0$, is in $T_{\beta}$ with…

Billera-Holmes-Vogtmann (BHV) tree space is a geodesic metric space of edge-weighted phylogenetic trees with a fixed leaf set. Constructing parametric distributions on this space is challenging due to its non-Euclidean geometry and the…

Consider n non-intersecting particles on the real line (Dyson Brownian motions), all starting from the origin at time=0, and forced to return to x=0 at time=1. For large n, the average mean density of particles has its support, for each…

We unify Brownian motion and quantum mechanics in a single mathematical framework. In particular, we show that non-relativistic quantum mechanics of a single spinless particle on a flat space can be described by a Wiener process that is…
