Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process conditioned to have restricted -norm

Frank Aurzada, Mikhail Lifshits, Max Wiegand

We condition an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process on having an atypically small -norm on long time intervals. The weak limit of these conditioned processes is again an Ornstein-Uhlen…

Persistence exponents via perturbation theory: MA(1)-processes

Frank Aurzada, Dieter Bothe, Pierre-Étienne Druet +2

For the moving average process , , where and is an i.i.d. sequence of normally distributed random variables, we…

Occupation times and areas derived from random sampling

Frank Aurzada, Leif Döring, Helmut H. Pitters

We consider the occupation area of spherical (fractional) Brownian motion, i.e. the area where the process is positive, and show that it is uniformly distributed. For the proof, we…

Brownian motion conditioned to have restricted -norm

Frank Aurzada, Mikhail Lifshits, Dominic T. Schickentanz

We condition a Brownian motion on having an atypically small -norm on a long time interval. The obtained limiting process is a non-stationary Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process.

Brownian motion conditioned to spend limited time outside a bounded interval -- an extreme example of entropic repulsion

Frank Aurzada, Martin Kolb, Dominic T. Schickentanz

We show that a Brownian motion on which is allowed to spend a total of time units outside a bounded interval does not leave the interval at all. This c…

Scaling limit of stretched Brownian chains

Frank Aurzada, Volker Betz, Mikhail Lifshits

We show that a properly scaled stretched long Brownian chain converges to a two-parametric stochastic process, given by the sum of an explicit deterministic continuous function and…

Persistence probabilities of mixed FBM and other mixed processes

Frank Aurzada, Martin Kilian, Ercan Sönmez

We consider the sum of two self-similar centred Gaussian processes with different self-similarity indices. Under non-negativity assumptions of covariance functions and some further…

Brownian Motion Conditioned to Spend Limited Time Below a Barrier

Frank Aurzada, Dominic T. Schickentanz

We condition a Brownian motion with arbitrary starting point on spending at most time unit below and provide an explicit description of the resulting pro…

Universal break law for chains of Brownian particles with nearest neighbour interaction

Frank Aurzada, Volker Betz, Mikhail Lifshits

We investigate the behaviour of a finite chain of Brownian particles, interacting through a pairwise potential , with one end of the chain fixed and the other end pulled away, i…

Asymptotics of the persistence exponent of integrated fractional Brownian motion and fractionally integrated Brownian motion

Frank Aurzada, Martin Kilian

We consider the persistence probability for the integrated fractional Brownian motion and the fractionally integrated Brownian motion with parameter respectively. For the inte…

Persistence probabilities of weighted sums of stationary Gaussian sequences

Frank Aurzada, Sumit Mukherjee

With being a centered stationary Gaussian sequence with non-negative correlation function and a sequence of posit…

Breaking a chain of interacting Brownian particles

Frank Aurzada, Volker Betz, Mikhail Lifshits

We investigate the behaviour of a finite chain of Brownian particles, interacting through a pairwise quadratic potential, with one end of the chain fixed and the other end pulled a…

Penalizing fractional Brownian motion for being negative

Frank Aurzada, Micha Buck, Martin Kilian

We study a modification of the fractional analogue of the Brownian meander, which is Brownian motion conditioned to be positive on the time interval . More precisely, we d…

Large deviations for infinite weighted sums of stretched exponential random variables

Frank Aurzada

We study the large deviation probabilities of infinite weighted sums of independent random variables that have stretched exponential tails. This generalizes Kiesel and Stadtmüller…

Ruin probabilities in the Cramér-Lundberg model with temporarily negative capital

Frank Aurzada, Micha Buck

We study the asymptotics of the ruin probability in the Cramér-Lundberg model with a modified notion of ruin. The modification is as follows. If the portfolio becomes negative, the…

For AR(1)-processes , , where and is an i.i.d. sequence of random variables, we study the persistence pr…

The first exit time of fractional Brownian motion from a parabolic domain

Frank Aurzada, Mikhail Lifshits

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 distr…

Scaling limits for a random boxes model

Frank Aurzada, Sebastian Schwinn

We consider random rectangles in that are distributed according to a Poisson random measure, i.e., independently and uniformly scattered in the plane. The distributi…

How complex is a random picture?

Frank Aurzada, Mikhail Lifshits

We study the amount of information that is contained in "random pictures", by which we mean the sample sets of a Boolean model. To quantify the notion "amount of information", two…

Persistence probabilities of two-sided (integrated) sums of correlated stationary Gaussian sequences

Frank Aurzada, Micha Buck

We study the persistence probability for some two-sided discrete-time Gaussian sequences that are discrete-time analogs of fractional Brownian motion and integrated fractional Brow…

Improving the performance of polling models using forced idle times

Frank Aurzada, Sebastian Schwinn

We consider polling models in the sense of Takagi (MIT Press, 1986). In our case, the feature of the server is that it may be forced to wait idly for new messages at an empty queue…

Persistence probabilities and a decorrelation inequality for the Rosenblatt process and Hermite processes

Frank Aurzada, Christian Mönch

We study persistence probabilities of Hermite processes. As a tool, we derive a general decorrelation inequality for the Rosenblatt process, which is reminiscent of Slepian's lemma…

Random walks and branching processes in correlated Gaussian environment

Frank Aurzada, Alexis Devulder, Nadine Guillotin-Plantard +1

We study persistence probabilities for random walks in correlated Gaussian random environment first studied by Oshanin, Rosso and Schehr. From the persistence results, we can deduc…
