First Passage Time of Skew Brownian Motion
Nearly fifty years after the introduction of skew Brownian motion by Itô and McKean (1963), the first passage time distribution remains unknown. In this paper, we first generalize results of Pitman and Yor (2001) and Csáki and Hu (2004) to derive formulae for the distribution of ranked excursion heights of skew Brownian motion, and then use this result to derive the first passage time distribut...
متن کاملFirst passage time for Brownian motion and piecewise linear boundaries
We propose a new approach to calculating the first passage time densities for Brownian motion crossing piecewise linear boundaries which can be discontinuous. Using this approach we obtain explicit formulas for the first passage densities and show that they are continuously differentiable except at the break points of the boundaries. Furthermore, these formulas can be used to approximate the fi...
متن کاملOn the First-passage Time of Integrated Brownian Motion
Let (Bt; t ≥ 0) be a Brownian motion process starting from B0 = ν and define Xν(t) = ∫ t 0 Bs ds. For a≥ 0, set τa,ν := inf{t : Xν(t) = a} (with inf φ=∞). We study the conditional moments of τa,ν given τa,ν <∞. Using martingale methods, stopping-time arguments, as well as the method of dominant balance, we obtain, in particular, an asymptotic expansion for the conditional mean E(τa,ν | τa,ν <∞)...
متن کاملIntegral Equations and the First Passage Time of Brownian Motions
The first passage time problem for Brownian motions hitting a barrier has been extensively studied in the literature. In particular, many incarnations of integral equations which link the density of the hitting time to the equation for the barrier itself have appeared. Most interestingly, Peskir (2002b) demonstrates that a master integral equation can be used to generate a countable number of n...
متن کاملOn the area under a continuous time Brownian motion till its first-passage time
The area swept out under a one-dimensional Brownian motion till its first-passage time is analysed using a Fokker-Planck technique. We obtain an exact expression for the area distribution for the zero drift case, and provide various asymptotic results for the non-zero drift case, emphasising the critical nature of the behaviour in the limit of vanishing drift. The results offer important insigh...
