We introduce a class of iterated processes called $\alpha$-time Brownian motion for $0<\alpha \leq 2$. These are obtained by taking Brownian motion and replacing the time parameter with a symmetric $\alpha$-stable process. We prove a…
Random flights (also called run-and-tumble walks or transport processes) represent finite velocity random motions changing direction at any Poissonian time. These models in d-dimension, can be studied giving a general formulation of the…

We show that local times of super-Brownian motion, or of Brownian motion indexed by the Brownian tree, satisfy an explicit stochastic differential equation. Our proofs rely on both excursion theory for the Brownian snake and tools from the…
We show that the past and future of half-plane Brownian motion at certain cutpoints are independent of each other after a conformal transformation. Like in Ito's excursion theory, the pieces between cutpoints form a Poisson process with…

A new approach is used to describe the large time behavior of the non-local differential equation initially studied in [3]. Our approach is based upon the existence of infinitely many Lyapunov functionals and allows us to extend the…
We prove the max-martingale conjecture given in recent article with Marc Yor. We show that for a continuous local martingale $(N\_t:t\ge 0)$ and a function $H:R x R\_+\to R$, $H(N\_t,\sup\_{s\leq t}N\_s)$ is a local martingale if and only…
In this paper, we study the local time spent by an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle at some location till time t. Using the Feynman-Kac formalism, the computation of the moment generating function of the local time can be mapped to the problem…
Denote by $H(t)=(H_1(t),...,H_N(t))$ a function in $t\in{\mathbb{R}}_+^N$ with values in $(0,1)^N$. Let $\{B^{H(t)}(t)\}=\{B^{H(t)}(t),t\in{\mathbb{R}}^N_+\}$ be an $(N,d)$-multifractional Brownian sheet (mfBs) with Hurst functional $H(t)$.…
In this paper we study the local times of vector-valued Gaussian fields that are `diagonally operator-self-similar' and whose increments are stationary. Denoting the local time of such a Gaussian field around the spatial origin and over the…
In this paper, we introduce a class of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) with fractional time-derivatives, and study the $L_2$-theory of the equations. This class of SPDEs can be used to describe random effects on transport…
A method is given of deriving the distribution of planar Brownian motion evaluated at certain stopping times using analytic functions. This method relies upon a generalization of the standard conformal invariance of harmonic measure. A…
We present a quantum model for the motion of N point particles, implying nonlocal (i.e., superluminal) influences of external fields on the trajectories, that is nonetheless fully relativistic. In contrast to other models that have been…
Starting from the seventies mathematicians face the question whether a non-negative local martingale is a true or a strict local martingale. In this article we answer this question from a semimartingale perspective. We connect the…

We study $\gamma_{k}(x_2,...,x_k;t)$, the k-fold renormalized self-intersection local time for Brownian motion in $R^1$. Our main result says that $\gamma_{k}(x_2,...,x_k;t)$ is continuously differentiable in the spatial variables, with…
