We address the problem of optimizing a Brownian motion. We consider a (random) realization $W$ of a Brownian motion with input space in $[0,1]$. Given $W$, our goal is to return an $\epsilon$-approximation of its maximum using the smallest…

In this short article we show how the techniques presented in arXiv:1207.4469 can be extended to a variety of non continuous and multivariate processes. As examples, we prove uniqueness of the location of the maximum for spectrally positive…

In this paper we present some limit theorems for power variation of L\'evy semi-stationary processes in the setting of infill asymptotics. L\'evy semi-stationary processes, which are a one-dimensional analogue of ambit fields, are moving…
