In the paper [7], Guasoni studies financial markets which are subject to proportional transaction costs. The standard martingale framework of stochastic finance is not applicable in these markets, since the transaction costs force trading strategies to have bounded variation, while…

We give characterisations for Brownian motion and continuous local martingales, using the crossing tree, which is a sample-path decomposition based on first-passages at nested scales. These results are based on ideas used in the construction of Brownian motion on the…

Abstract. Let $H(t,x)$ be the Hopf-Cole solution at time t of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) equation starting with narrow wedge initial condition, i.e. the logarithm of the solution of the multiplicative stochastic heat equation starting from a Dirac delta. Also let…

We give a new proof for a Ray-Knight representation of Feller's branching diffusion with logistic growth in terms of the local times of a reflected Brownian motion $H$ with a drift that is affine linear in the local time accumulated…

Regular g-measures are discrete-time processes determined by conditional expectations with respect to the past. One-dimensional Gibbs measures, on the other hand, are fields determined by simultaneous conditioning on past and future. For the Markovian and exponentially continuous cases both theories…

Let $\Lambda$ be the limiting smallest eigenvalue in the general $(\beta,a)$-Laguerre ensemble of random matrix theory. That is, $\Lambda$ is the $n\to\infty$ distributional limit of the (scaled) minimal point drawn from the density proportional to $\Pi_1\leq i\leq j\leq n$ $$\left|\lambda_i-\lambda_j\right|^\beta\prod_{i=1}^n\lambda_i^{\frac{\beta}{2}(a+1)-1}e^{-\frac{\beta}{2}\lambda_i}$$…

This note is motivated by results of Angel, Goodman, den Hollander and Slade (2008) and Damron, Sapozhnikov and Vagvolgyi (2009) about global relations between the invasion percolation cluster (IPC) and the incipient infinite cluster (IIC) on regular trees and on…

Supercritical branching processes in constant environment conditioned on eventual extinction are known to be subcritical branching processes. The case of random environment is more subtle. A supercritical branching diffusion in random environment (BDRE) conditioned on eventual extinction of the population…

We consider the voter model on $\mathbb{Z}$, starting with all 1's to the left of the origin and all $0$'s to the right of the origin. It is known that if the associated random walk kernel $p$ has zero mean…

Let $A(t)$ be an $n\times p$ matrix with independent standard complex Brownian entries and set $M(t)=A(t)^*A(t)$. This is a process version of the Laguerre ensemble and as such we shall refer to it as the Laguerre process. The purpose of…
