Let $\tau_{D}(Z) $ be the first exit time of iterated Brownian motion from a domain $D \subset \RR{R}^{n}$ started at $z\in D$ and let $P_{z}[\tau_{D}(Z) >t]$ be its distribution. In this paper we establish the exact asymptotics of…

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…

Suppose a solid has a crack filled with a gas. If the crack reaches the surrounding medium, how long does it take the gas to diffuse out of the crack? Iterated Brownian motion serves as a model for diffusion in a crack. If \tau is the first…

We derive a three-term asymptotic expansion for the expected lifetime of Brownian motion and for the torsional rigidity on thin domains in R^n, and a two-term expansion for the maximum (and corresponding maximizer) of the expected lifetime.…

We extend generalized isoperimetric-type inequalities to iterated Brownian motion over several domains in $\RR{R}^{n}$. These kinds of inequalities imply in particular that for domains of finite volume, the exit distribution and moments of…

We study the first exit time of a multi-dimensional fractional Brownian motion from unbounded domains. In particular, we are interested in the upper tail of the corresponding distribution when the domain is parabola-shaped.

Let $D\subset R^d$ be a bounded domain and let $\mathcal P(D)$ denote the space of probability measures on $D$. Consider a Brownian motion in $D$ which is killed at the boundary and which, while alive, jumps instantaneously according to a…

For drifted Brownian motion $X(t)= x - \mu t + B_t \ (\mu >0)$ starting from $x>0,$ we study the joint distribution of the first-passage time below zero, $\tau(x),$ and the first-passage area, $A(x),$ swept out by $X$ till the time…

Let $\tau$ be the first hitting time of the point 1 by the geometric Brownian motion $X(t)= x \exp(B(t)-2\mu t)$ with drift $\mu \geq 0$ starting from $x>1$. Here $B(t)$ is the Brownian motion starting from 0 with $E^0 B^2(t) = 2t$. We…

In this article we study a problem related to the first passage and inverse first passage time problems for Brownian motions originally formulated by Jackson, Kreinin and Zhang (2009). Specifically, define $\tau_X = \inf\{t>0:W_t + X \le…
