Let $T^m$ be the $m$-dimensional unit torus, $m \in N$. The torsional rigidity of an open set $\Omega \subset T^m$ is the integral with respect to Lebesgue measure over all starting points $x \in \Omega$ of the expected lifetime in $\Omega$…

An exact formula is derived, as an integral, for the mean square winding angle of Brownian motion (that is, diffusion) after time t, around an infinitely long impenetrable cylinder of radius a, having started at radius R(>a) from the axis.…

In this paper, we study the edge behavior of Dyson Brownian motion with general $\beta$. Specifically, we consider the scenario where the averaged initial density near the edge, on the scale $\eta_*$, is lower bounded by a square root…

A fundamental question in rough path theory is whether the expected signature of a geometric rough path completely determines the law of signature. One sufficient condition is that the expected signature has infinite radius of convergence,…

We compute bounds in the expected Ollivier curvature for the Brownian continuum random tree $\mathcal{T}_{\mathbb{e}}$. The results indicate that when the scale dependence of the Ollivier curvature is properly taken into account, the…

We consider a Brownian particle with diffusion coefficient $D$ in a $d$-dimensional ball of radius $R$ with reflecting boundaries. We study the maximum $M_x(t)$ of the trajectory of the particle along the $x$-direction at time $t$. In the…

We consider Brownian motion in a circular disk $\Omega$, whose boundary $\p\Omega$ is reflecting, except for a small arc, $\p\Omega_a$, which is absorbing. As $\epsilon=|\partial \Omega_a|/|\partial \Omega|$ decreases to zero the mean time…

We compute the mean first passage time (MFPT) for a Brownian particle inside a two-dimensional disk with reflective boundaries and a small interior trap that is rotating at a constant angular velocity. The inherent symmetry of the problem…

We study the convex hull of planar Brownian motion run until the exit time from the unit disk. Our primary objective is to compute the expected perimeter of this convex hull, thereby complementing recent results on the convex hull of…

Let $W_{t}$ be Brownian motion in the plane started at the origin and let $ \theta$ be the first exit time of the unit disk $D_{1}$. Let \[\mu_{ \theta } ( x,\epsilon) =\frac{1}{\pi\epsilon^{ 2} }\int_{0}^{ \theta }1_{\{ B( x,\epsilon)\}}(…

We study the radius $R_T$ of a self-repellent fractional Brownian motion $\left\{B^H_t\right\}_{0\le t\le T}$ taking values in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Our sharpest result is for $d=1$, where we find that with high probability, \begin{equation*} R_T…

We obtain upper bounds for the isoperimetric quotients of extrinsic balls of submanifolds in ambient spaces which have a lower bound on their radial sectional curvatures. The submanifolds are themselves only assumed to have lower bounds on…

For a continuous ${\cal L}_2$-bounded Martingale with no intervals of constancy, starting at $0$ and having final variance $\sigma^2$, the expected local time at $x \in \cal{R}$ is at most $\sqrt{\sigma^2+x^2}-|x|$. This sharp bound is…

We investigate radial Rindler trajectories in a static spherically symmetric black hole spacetime. We assume the trajectory to remain linearly uniformly accelerated throughout its motion, in the sense of the curved spacetime generalisation…

The mean exit time function defined on the $\delta$-tube around any equator $\mathbb{S}^{n-1} \subseteq \mathbb{S}^{n}$ of the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n}$, ($0<\delta<\pi/2$), goes to infinity with the dimension, so that when we consider a…

Let $\Omega$ be an open set in Euclidean space $\R^m,\, m=2,3,...$, and let $v_{\Omega}$ denote the torsion function for $\Omega$. It is known that $v_{\Omega}$ is bounded if and only if the bottom of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian…
