In this paper, following earlier results in [2] we derive the asymptotic distribution as $t \to \infty$, of the excursion of Brownian motion straddling $t$, into an interval $(a,b)$, conditional on the event that there is such an excursion.
Let $(S_t)_{t\geq 0}$ be the running maximum of a standard Brownian motion $(B_t)_{t\geq 0}$ and $T_m:=\inf\{t; \, mS_t<t\},\, m>0$. In this note we calculate the joint distribution of $T_m$ and $B_{T_m}$. The motivation for our work comes…
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…

Let B_1,B_2, ... be independent one-dimensional Brownian motions defined over the whole real line such that B_i(0)=0. We consider the nth iterated Brownian motion W_n(t)= B_n(B_{n-1}(...(B_2(B_1(t)))...)). Although the sequences of…

Given a standard Brownian motion $B^{\mu}=(B_t^{\mu})_{0\le t\le T}$ with drift $\mu \in IR$ and letting $g$ denote the last zero of $B^{\mu}$ before $T$, we consider the optimal prediction problem V_*=\inf_{0\le \tau \le T}\mathsf…
We construct a model of Brownian Motion on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold associated with general relativity. There are two aspects of the problem: The first is to define a sequence of stopping times associated with the Brownian "kicks" or…
Iterated Brownian motion $Z_{t}$ serves as a physical model for diffusions in a crack. If $\tau_{D}(Z) $ is the first exit time of this processes from a domain $D \subset \RR{R}^{n}$, started at $z\in D$, then $P_{z}[\tau_{D}(Z)>t]$ is the…

Fractional Brownian motion is a Gaussian process x(t) with zero mean and two-time correlations <x(t)x(s)> ~ t^{2H} + s^{2H} - |t-s|^{2H}, where H, with 0<H<1 is called the Hurst exponent. For H = 1/2, x(t) is a Brownian motion, while for H…
