We prove large deviation principles for $\int_0^t \gamma(X_s)ds$, where $X$ is a $d$-dimensional self-similar Gaussian process and $\gamma(x)$ takes the form of the Dirac delta function $\delta(x)$, $|x|^{-\beta}$ with $\beta\in (0,d)$, or…
The large deviations analysis of solutions to stochastic differential equations and related processes is often based on approximation. The construction and justification of the approximations can be onerous, especially in the case where the…
We study several matrix diffusion processes constructed from a unitary Brownian motion. In particular, we use the Stiefel fibration to lift the Brownian motion of the complex Grassmannian to the complex Stiefel manifold and deduce a…
The free multiplicative Brownian motion $b_{t}$ is the large-$N$ limit of Brownian motion $B_t^N$ on the general linear group $\mathrm{GL}(N;\mathbb{C})$. We prove that the Brown measure for $b_{t}$---which is an analog of the empirical…
Brownian motion of free particles on curved surfaces is studied by means of the Langevin equation written in Riemann normal coordinates. In the diffusive regime we find the same physical behavior as the one described by the diffusion…
We prove the convergence of the spectrum of the generator of the kinetic Brownian motion to the spectrum of the base Laplacian for closed Riemannian manifolds. This generalizes recent work of Kolb--Weich--Wolf [arXiv:2011.06434] on constant…
We study exclusion processes on the integer lattice in which particles change their velocities due to stickiness. Specifically, whenever two or more particles occupy adjacent sites, they stick together for an extended period of time, and…
We prove the existence and uniqueness of a strong solution of a stochastic differential equation with normal reflection representing the random motion of finitely many globules. Each globule is a sphere with time-dependent random radius and…
Let $W^H=\{W^H(t), t \in \rr\}$ be a fractional Brownian motion of Hurst index $H \in (0, 1)$ with values in $\rr$, and let $L = \{L_t, t \ge 0\}$ be the local time process at zero of a strictly stable L\'evy process $X=\{X_t, t \ge 0\}$ of…
We introduce a location statistic for distributions on non-linear geometric spaces, the diffusion mean, serving as an extension and an alternative to the Fr\'echet mean. The diffusion mean arises as the generalization of Gaussian maximum…
We prove strong small deviations results for Brownian motion under independent time-changes satisfying their own asymptotic criteria. We then apply these results to certain stochastic integrals which are elements of second-order homogeneous…
For hyperbolic flows $\varphi_t$ we examine the Gibbs measure of points $w$ for which $$\int_0^T G(\varphi_t w) dt - a T \in (- e^{-\epsilon n}, e^{- \epsilon n})$$ as $n \to \infty$ and $T \geq n$, provided $\epsilon > 0$ is sufficiently…
The rate of strong convergence is investigated for an approximation scheme for a class of stochastic differential equations driven by a time-changed Brownian motion, where the random time changes $(E_t)_{t\ge 0}$ considered include the…
We introduce a class of kinetic and anisotropic random motions $(x_t^{\sigma},v_t^{\sigma})_{t \geq 0}$ on the unit tangent bundle $T^1 \mathcal M$ of a general Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal M,g)$, where $\sigma$ is a positive parameter…
It has been proved by Bovier & Hartung [Elect. J. Probab. 19 (2014)] that the maximum of a variable-speed branching Brownian motion (BBM) in the weak correlation regime converges to a randomly shifted Gumbel distribution. The random shift…
In this paper we consider a large class of super-Brownian motions in $\mathbb{R}$ with spatially dependent branching mechanisms. We establish the almost sure growth rate of the mass located outside a time-dependent interval $(-\delta…
We show that in branching Brownian motion (BBM) in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$, the law of $R_t^*$, the maximum distance of a particle from the origin at time $t$, converges as $t\to\infty$ to the law of a randomly shifted Gumbel random…
It is well known that Brownian motion enjoys several distributional invariances such as the scaling property and the time reversal. In this paper, we prove another invariance of Brownian motion that is compatible with the time reversal. The…
We demonstrate experimentally that a Brownian particle is subject to inertial effects at long time scales. By using a blinking optical tweezers, we extend the range of previous experiments by several orders of magnitude up to a few seconds.…
This paper studies, in dimensions greater than two, stationary diffusion processes in random environment which are small, isotropic perturbations of Brownian motion satisfying a finite range dependence. Such processes were first considered…
