Walsh Spider Diffusions as Time Changed Multi-parameter Processes
arXiv:2204.07101
Abstract
Inspired by allocation strategies in multi-armed bandit model, we propose a pathwise construction of Walsh spider diffusions. For any infinitesimal generator on a star shaped graph, there exists a unique time change associated with a multi-parameter process such that the time change of this multi-parameter process is the desired diffusion. The time change has an interpretation of time allocation of the process on each edge, and it can be derived explicitly from a family of equations.
