Exponential Functionals of Brownian Motion and Related Processes by Marc Yor Pdf
This volume collects papers about the laws of geometric Brownian motions and their time-integrals, written by the author and coauthors between 1988 and 1998. Throughout the volume, connections with more recent studies involving exponential functionals of Lévy processes are indicated. Some papers originally published in French are made available in English for the first time.
Aspects of Brownian Motion by Roger Mansuy,Marc Yor Pdf
Stochastic calculus and excursion theory are very efficient tools for obtaining either exact or asymptotic results about Brownian motion and related processes. This book focuses on special classes of Brownian functionals, including Gaussian subspaces of the Gaussian space of Brownian motion; Brownian quadratic funtionals; Brownian local times; Exponential functionals of Brownian motion with drift; Time spent by Brownian motion below a multiple of its one-sided supremum.
Lévy Processes by Ole E Barndorff-Nielsen,Thomas Mikosch,Sidney I. Resnick Pdf
A Lévy process is a continuous-time analogue of a random walk, and as such, is at the cradle of modern theories of stochastic processes. Martingales, Markov processes, and diffusions are extensions and generalizations of these processes. In the past, representatives of the Lévy class were considered most useful for applications to either Brownian motion or the Poisson process. Nowadays the need for modeling jumps, bursts, extremes and other irregular behavior of phenomena in nature and society has led to a renaissance of the theory of general Lévy processes. Researchers and practitioners in fields as diverse as physics, meteorology, statistics, insurance, and finance have rediscovered the simplicity of Lévy processes and their enormous flexibility in modeling tails, dependence and path behavior. This volume, with an excellent introductory preface, describes the state-of-the-art of this rapidly evolving subject with special emphasis on the non-Brownian world. Leading experts present surveys of recent developments, or focus on some most promising applications. Despite its special character, every topic is aimed at the non- specialist, keen on learning about the new exciting face of a rather aged class of processes. An extensive bibliography at the end of each article makes this an invaluable comprehensive reference text. For the researcher and graduate student, every article contains open problems and points out directions for futurearch. The accessible nature of the work makes this an ideal introductory text for graduate seminars in applied probability, stochastic processes, physics, finance, and telecommunications, and a unique guide to the world of Lévy processes.
This eagerly awaited textbook covers everything the graduate student in probability wants to know about Brownian motion, as well as the latest research in the area. Starting with the construction of Brownian motion, the book then proceeds to sample path properties like continuity and nowhere differentiability. Notions of fractal dimension are introduced early and are used throughout the book to describe fine properties of Brownian paths. The relation of Brownian motion and random walk is explored from several viewpoints, including a development of the theory of Brownian local times from random walk embeddings. Stochastic integration is introduced as a tool and an accessible treatment of the potential theory of Brownian motion clears the path for an extensive treatment of intersections of Brownian paths. An investigation of exceptional points on the Brownian path and an appendix on SLE processes, by Oded Schramm and Wendelin Werner, lead directly to recent research themes.
A Lifetime of Excursions Through Random Walks and Lévy Processes by Loïc Chaumont,Andreas E. Kyprianou Pdf
This collection honours Ron Doney’s work and includes invited articles by his collaborators and friends. After an introduction reviewing Ron Doney’s mathematical achievements and how they have influenced the field, the contributed papers cover both discrete-time processes, including random walks and variants thereof, and continuous-time processes, including Lévy processes and diffusions. A good number of the articles are focused on classical fluctuation theory and its ramifications, the area for which Ron Doney is best known.
Penalising Brownian Paths by Bernard Roynette,Marc Yor Pdf
Penalising a process is to modify its distribution with a limiting procedure, thus defining a new process whose properties differ somewhat from those of the original one. We are presenting a number of examples of such penalisations in the Brownian and Bessel processes framework. The Martingale theory plays a crucial role. A general principle for penalisation emerges from these examples. In particular, it is shown in the Brownian framework that a positive sigma-finite measure takes a large class of penalisations into account.

In Memoriam Marc Yor - Séminaire de Probabilités XLVII by Catherine Donati-Martin,Antoine Lejay,Alain Rouault Pdf
This volume is dedicated to the memory of Marc Yor, who passed away in 2014. The invited contributions by his collaborators and former students bear testament to the value and diversity of his work and of his research focus, which covered broad areas of probability theory. The volume also provides personal recollections about him, and an article on his essential role concerning the Doeblin documents. With contributions by P. Salminen, J-Y. Yen & M. Yor; J. Warren; T.

Local Times and Excursion Theory for Brownian Motion by Ju-Yi Yen,Marc Yor Pdf
This monograph discusses the existence and regularity properties of local times associated to a continuous semimartingale, as well as excursion theory for Brownian paths. Realizations of Brownian excursion processes may be translated in terms of the realizations of a Wiener process under certain conditions. With this aim in mind, the monograph presents applications to topics which are not usually treated with the same tools, e.g.: arc sine law, laws of functionals of Brownian motion, and the Feynman-Kac formula.
Properties and Interrelationships of Polynomial, Exponential, Logarithmic and Power Functions with Applications to Modeling Natural Phenomena by Yuri K. Shestopaloff Pdf
The book considers properties of polynomial, exponential, logarithmic and power functions. It introduces and proves important relationships between these functions, which enhances the theory and greatly improves the range of theoretical and practical applications, such as the modeling of physical, societal or economical processes. Relationship of the considered functions with the physical reality is another primarily subject of this book. Lots of illustrations and examples based on physical, biological, societal phenomena constitute a substantial part of the book, that facilitates the understanding of introduced modeling concepts and methods. The book is an excellent supplementary material for mathematical and physical courses for undergraduate and graduate studies; a valuable resource for mathematicians working in areas of algebra and analysis. Engineers, researchers, analysts, who use these functions in modeling of different processes and phenomena, will greatly benefit from this book.
