We establish the consistency of a local time approximation of a diffusion at a sticky threshold based on high-frequency observations. First, we prove the result for sticky Brownian motion, and then extend it to It\^o diffusions with a…

The scaled Brownian motion (SBM) is regarded as one of the paradigmatic random processes, featuring the anomalous diffusion property characterized by the diffusion exponent. It is a Gaussian, self-similar process with independent…

We study the one-dimensional Burgers equation in the inviscid limit for Brownian initial velocity (i.e. the initial velocity is a two-sided Brownian motion that starts from the origin x=0). We obtain the one-point distribution of the…

In this paper we revisit the integral functional of geometric Brownian motion $I_t= \int_0^t e^{-(\mu s +\sigma W_s)}ds$, where $\mu\in\mathbb{R}$, $\sigma > 0$, and $(W_s )_s>0$ is a standard Brownian motion. Specifically, we calculate the…

We consider the motion of a particle on a surface which is a small perturbation of the standard sphere. One may qualitatively describe the motion by means of a precessing great circle of the sphere. The observation is employed to derive a…

Let $d\geq 2$. In this paper, we investigate the following stochastic differential equation (SDE) in ${\mathbb R}^d$ driven by Brownian motion $$ {\rm d} X_t=b(t,X_t){\rm d} t+\sqrt{2}{\rm d} W_t, $$ where $b$ belongs to the space ${\mathbb…

Let T(x,r) denote the first hitting time of the disc of radius r centered at x for Brownian motion on the two dimensional torus. We prove that sup_{x} T(x,r)/|log r|^2 --> 2/pi as r --> 0. The same applies to Brownian motion on any smooth,…
