This paper provides a multivariate extension of Bertoin's pathwise construction of a L\'evy process conditioned to stay positive/negative. Thus obtained processes conditioned to stay in half-spaces are closely related to the original…
We first study a $d$-dimensional branching Brownian motion (BBM) among mild Poissonian obstacles, where a random trap field in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is created via a Poisson point process. The trap field consists of balls of fixed radius centered…
Consider a system of particles performing branching Brownian motion with negative drift $\mu = \sqrt{2 - \epsilon}$ and killed upon hitting zero. Initially there is one particle at $x>0$. Kesten showed that the process survives with…
Aldous and Pitman (1994) studied asymptotic distributions, as n tends to infinity, of various functionals of a uniform random mapping of a set of n elements, by constructing a mapping-walk and showing these mapping-walks converge weakly to…
We study Brownian flows on manifolds for which the associated Markov process is strongly mixing with respect to an invariant probability measure and for which the distance process for each pair of trajectories is a diffusion $r$. We provide…
A systematic exposition of scale functions is given for positive self-similar Markov processes (pssMp) with one-sided jumps. The scale functions express as convolution series of the usual scale functions associated with spectrally one-sided…
We consider a branching Brownian motion in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \geq 1$ in which the position $X_t^{(u)}\in \mathbb{R}^d$ of a particle $u$ at time $t$ can be encoded by its direction $\theta^{(u)}_t \in \mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ and its distance…
We are interested in path decompositions of a perturbed reflecting Brownian motion (PRBM) at the hitting times and at the minimum. Our study relies on the loop soups developed by Lawler and Werner [10] and Le Jan [13]-[14], in particular on…
Let {X_n,n\geq0} be a Markov chain on a general state space X with transition probability P and stationary probability \pi. Suppose an additive component S_n takes values in the real line R and is adjoined to the chain such that…
We condition super-Brownian motion on "boundary statistics" of the exit measure $X_D$ from a bounded domain $D$. These are random variables defined on an auxiliary probability space generated by sampling from the exit measure $X_D$. Two…
In this paper we investigate three discrete or semi-discrete approximation schemes for reflected Brownian motion on bounded Euclidean domains. For a class of bounded domains $D$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ that includes all bounded Lipschitz domains…
We consider branching Brownian motion in which initially there is one particle at $x$, particles produce a random number of offspring with mean $m+1$ at the time of branching events, and each particle branches at rate $\beta = 1/2m$.…
We establish in this paper the existence of weak solutions of infinite-dimensional shift invariant stochastic differential equations driven by a Brownian term. The drift function is very general, in the sense that it is supposed to be…
In this paper we consider the problem of finding entrance laws at the origin for self-similar Markov processes in $\mathbb{R}^d$, killed upon hitting the origin. Under mild assumptions, we show the existence of an entrance law and the…
In this paper we prove a large deviation principle for the empirical drift of a one-dimensional Brownian motion with self-repellence called the Edwards model. Our results extend earlier work in which a law of large numbers, respectively, a…
The purpose of this paper is to construct a Brownian motion $X := (X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ taking values in a Riemannian manifold $M$, together with a compact valued process $D:= (D_t)_{t\geq 0}$ such that, at least for small enough ${\mathscr…
In this paper, we study branching Brownian motion with absorption, in which particles undergo Brownian motions with drift and are killed upon reaching the origin. We prove that the extremal process of this branching Brownian motion with…
We study negative large deviations of the long-time empirical front velocity of the center of mass of the one-sided $N$-BBM ($N$-particle branching Brownian motion) system in one dimension. Employing the macroscopic fluctuation theory, we…
We consider the last zero crossing time $T_{\mu,t}$ of a Brownian motion, with drift $\mu \neq 0$ in the time interval $[0, t]$. We prove the large deviation principle of $\{T_{\mu \sqrt r t} : r > 0 \}$ as $r$ tends to infinity. Moreover,…
