Excursions of diffusion processes and continued fractions
It is well-known that the excursions of a one-dimensional diffusion process can be studied by considering a certain Riccati equation associated with the process. We show that, in many cases of interest, the Riccati equation can be solved in terms of an infinite continued fraction. We examine the probabilistic significance of the expansion. To illustrate our results, we discuss some examples of diffusions in deterministic and in random environments.
Excursions of the integral of the brownian motion
The integrated brownian motion is sometimes known as the Langevin process. Lachal studied several excursion laws induced by the latter. Here we follow a different point of view developed by Pitman for general stationary processes. We first construct a stationary Langevin process and then determine explicitly its stationary excursion measure. This is then used to provide new descriptions of Itô’s excursion measure of the Langevin process reflected at a completely inelastic boundary, which has been...
Existence and asymptotic behaviour of some time-inhomogeneous diffusions
Let us consider a solution of a one-dimensional stochastic differential equation driven by a standard Brownian motion with time-inhomogeneous drift coefficient . This process can be viewed as a Brownian motion evolving in a potential, possibly singular, depending on time. We prove results on the existence and uniqueness of solution, study its asymptotic behaviour and made a precise description, in terms of parameters , and , of the recurrence, transience and convergence. More precisely, asymptotic...

Existence of graphs with sub exponential transitions probability decay and applications
In this paper, we recall the existence of graphs with bounded valency such that the simple random walk has a return probability at time at the origin of order for fixed and with Følner function . This result was proved by Erschler (see [4], [3]); we give a more detailed proof of this construction in the appendix. In the second part, we give an application of the existence of such graphs. We obtain bounds of the correct order for some functional of the local time of a simple random walk on...

Explicit parametrix and local limit theorems for some degenerate diffusion processes
For a class of degenerate diffusion processes of rank 2, i.e. when only Poisson brackets of order one are needed to span the whole space, we obtain a parametrix representation of McKean–Singer [J. Differential Geom.1 (1967) 43–69] type for the density. We therefrom derive an explicit gaussian upper bound and a partial lower bound that characterize the additional singularity induced by the degeneracy. This particular representation then allows to give a local limit theorem with the usual convergence...
Exponential asymptotics for intersection local times of stable processes and random walks
Exponential functionals of brownian motion and class-one Whittaker functions
We consider exponential functionals of a brownian motion with drift in ℝn, defined via a collection of linear functionals. We give a characterisation of the Laplace transform of their joint law as the unique bounded solution, up to a constant factor, to a Schrödinger-type partial differential equation. We derive a similar equation for the probability density. We then characterise all diffusions which can be interpreted as having the law of the brownian motion with drift conditioned on the law of...
