Hitting a boundary point with reflected brownian motion
Hitting distributions domination and subordinate resolvents; an analytic approach
We give an analytic version of the well known Shih's theorem concerning the Markov processes whose hitting distributions are dominated by those of a given process. The treatment is purely analytic, completely different from Shih's arguments and improves essentially his result (in the case when the given processes are transient
Hitting distributions of geometric Brownian motion
Let τ be the first hitting time of the point 1 by the geometric Brownian motion X(t) = x exp(B(t) - 2μt) with drift μ ≥ 0 starting from x > 1. Here B(t) is the Brownian motion starting from 0 with EB²(t) = 2t. We provide an integral formula for the density function of the stopped exponential functional and determine its asymptotic behaviour at infinity. Although we basically rely on methods developed in [BGS], the present paper covers the case of arbitrary drifts μ ≥ 0 and provides a significant...
Hitting half-spaces or spheres by Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type diffusions
The purpose of the paper is to provide a general method for computing the hitting distributions of some regular subsets D for Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type operators of the form 1/2Δ + F·∇, with F bounded and orthogonal to the boundary of D. As an important application we obtain integral representations of the Poisson kernel for a half-space and balls for hyperbolic Brownian motion and for the classical Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. The method developed in this paper is based on stochastic calculus and...
Hitting probabilities and potential theory for the brownian path-valued process
We consider the Brownian path-valued process studied in [LG1], [LG2], which is closely related to super Brownian motion. We obtain several potential-theoretic results related to this process. In particular, we give an explicit description of the capacitary distribution of certain subsets of the path space, such as the set of paths that hit a given closed set. These capacitary distributions are characterized as the laws of solutions of certain stochastic differential equations. They solve variational...

Hitting time of a corner for a reflected diffusion in the square
We discuss the long time behavior of a two-dimensional reflected diffusion in the unit square and investigate more specifically the hitting time of a neighborhood of the origin. We distinguish three different regimes depending on the sign of the correlation coefficient of the diffusion matrix at the point 0. For a positive correlation coefficient, the expectation of the hitting time is uniformly bounded as the neighborhood shrinks. For a negative one, the expectation explodes in a polynomial way...

Hoeffding spaces and Specht modules
It is proved that each Hoeffding space associated with a random permutation (or, equivalently, with extractions without replacement from a finite population) carries an irreducible representation of the symmetric group, equivalent to a two-block Specht module.

Hölder continuity of solutions of second-order non-linear elliptic integro-differential equations
This paper is concerned with the Hölder regularity of viscosity solutions of second-order, fully non-linear elliptic integro-differential equations. Our results rely on two key ingredients: first we assume that, at each point of the domain, either the equation is strictly elliptic in the classical fully non-linear sense, or (and this is the most original part of our work) the equation is strictly elliptic in a non-local non-linear sense we make precise. Next we impose some regularity and growth...

Hölderian invariance principle for Hilbertian linear processes
Let be the polygonal partial sums processes built on the linear processes , n ≥ 1, where are i.i.d., centered random elements in some separable Hilbert space and the ai's are bounded linear operators , with . We investigate functional central limit theorem for in the Hölder spaces of functions such that ||x(t + h) - x(t)|| = o(p(h)) uniformly in t, where p(h) = hαL(1/h), 0 ≤ h ≤ 1 with 0 ≤ α ≤ 1/2 and L slowly varying at infinity. We obtain the weak convergence of ...

Holt-Winters method with general seasonality
The paper suggests a generalization of widely used Holt-Winters smoothing and forecasting method for seasonal time series. The general concept of seasonality modeling is introduced both for the additive and multiplicative case. Several special cases are discussed, including a linear interpolation of seasonal indices and a usage of trigonometric functions. Both methods are fully applicable for time series with irregularly observed data (just the special case of missing observations was covered up...
