We study the Takagi-van der Waerden functions $f_r (x)$, a well-known class of continuous but nowhere differentiable functions, from probabilistic point of view. As an application of elephant random walks remembering the very recent past…
In this paper, we prove that for some Generalized Takagi Classes, in particular for the Takagi-Van der Waerden Class, the functions are nowhere differentiable if, and only if, the sequence of weights does not belong to $c_0$.
We introduce the Takagi--van der Waerden function with parameters $a{>}b{>}0$ by setting $f_{a,b}(x)=\sum\limits_{n=1}^\infty b^n d\big(x,S_n\big)$, where $S_n$ is a maximal $\frac1{a^n}$-separated set in a metric space $X$. So, if…
This paper examines the level sets of the continuous but nowhere differentiable functions \begin{equation*} f_r(x)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty r^{-n}\phi(r^n x), \end{equation*} where $\phi(x)$ is the distance from $x$ to the nearest integer, and $r$…
We consider a non-Markovian discrete-time random walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ with unbounded memory called the elephant random walk (ERW). We prove a strong invariance principle for the ERW. More specifically, we prove that, under a suitable…
We consider Weierstra\ss\ and Takagi-van der Waerden functions with critical degree of roughness. In this case, the functions have vanishing $p^{\text{th}}$ variation for all $p>1$ but are also nowhere differentiable and hence not of…
The aim of this paper is to investigate discrete approximations of the exponential functional $\int_0^{\infty} \exp(B(t) - \nu t) \di t$ of Brownian motion (which plays an important role in Asian options of financial mathematics) by the…
We consider a class $\mathscr{X}$ of continuous functions on $[0,1]$ that is of interest from two different perspectives. First, it is closely related to sets of functions that have been studied as generalizations of the Takagi function.…
This paper is concerned with Random walk approximations of the Brownian motion on the Affine group Aff(R). We are in particular interested in the case where the innovations are discrete. In this framework, the return probability of the walk…
In this paper, we investigate the Takagi-van der Waerden function, $$ T_r(x) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{\phi(r^n x)}{r^n} ,\quad x\in [0,1], \quad r \in \mathbb{Z}^+, $$ where $\phi(x)={\rm dist}(x,\mathbb{Z})$ represents the distance from…
We consider a probabilistic approach to compute the Wiener--Young $\Phi$-variation of fractal functions in the Takagi class. Here, the $\Phi$-variation is understood as a generalization of the quadratic variation or, more generally, the…
We present a self-contained and modern survey of some existing quasi-sure results via the connection to the Brownian sheet. Among other things, we prove that quasi-every continuous function: (i) satisfies the local law of the iterated…
The Takagi function $T:[0,1]\to \mathbb{R}$ is a classical example of a continuous nowhere differentiable function. In this paper, we study the discrete dynamical system generated by the Takagi function. First, we prove that for almost…
This paper sketches the history of the Takagi function T and surveys known properties of T, including its nowhere-differentiability, modulus of continuity, graphical properties and level sets. Several generalizations of the Takagi function,…
The functions of the Takagi exponential class are similar in construction to the continuous, nowhere differentiable Takagi function described in 1901. They have one real parameter $v\in (-1;1)$ and at points $x\in{\mathbb R}$ are defined by…
The concept of the $p^{\text{th}}$ variation of a continuous function $f$ along a refining sequence of partitions is the key to a pathwise It\^o integration theory with integrator $f$. Here, we analyze the $p^{\text{th}}$ variation of a…
In this paper, we present several path properties, simulations, inferences, and generalizations of the weighted sub-fractional Brownian motion. A primary focus is on the derivation of the covariance function $R_{f,b}(s,t)$ for the weighted…
We consider a generalized version of the Takagi function, which is one of the most famous example of nowhere differentiable continuous functions. We investigate a set of conditions to describe the rate of convergence of Takagi class…
We establish almost sure invariance principles, a strong form of approximation by Brownian motion, for non-stationary time-series arising as observations on dynamical systems. Our examples include observations on sequential expanding maps,…
