Discrete random walk models for symmetric Lévy - Feller diffusion processes

چکیده
We propose a variety of models of random walk, discrete in space and time, suitable for simulating stable random variables of arbitrary index α (0 < α ≤ 2), in the symmetric case. We show that by properly scaled transition to vanishing space and time steps our random walk models converge to the corresponding continuous Markovian stochastic processes, that we refer to as Lévy-Feller diffusion processes.

By space-fractional (or L evy-Feller) diiusion processes we mean the processes governed by a generalized diiusion equation which generates all L evy stable probability distributions with index (0 < 2), including the two symmetric most popular laws, Cauchy (= 1) and Gauss (= 2). This generalized equation is obtained from the standard linear diiusion equation by replacing the second-order space d...
متن کاملExcursions away from a regular point for one-dimensional symmetric Lévy processes without Gaussian part
The characteristic measure of excursions away from a regular point is studied for a class of symmetric Lévy processes without Gaussian part. It is proved that the harmonic transform of the killed process enjoys Feller property. The result is applied to prove extremeness of the excursion measure and to prove several sample path behaviors of the excursion and the h-path processes.
متن کاملCentral Limit Theorem in Multitype Branching Random Walk
A discrete time multitype (p-type) branching random walk on the real line R is considered. The positions of the j-type individuals in the n-th generation form a point process. The asymptotic behavior of these point processes, when the generation size tends to infinity, is studied. The central limit theorem is proved.
متن کاملFractional Diffusion Processes : Probability Distributions and Continuous Time Random
A physical-mathematical approach to anomalous diffusion may be based on generalized diffusion equations (containing derivatives of fractional order in space or/and time) and related random walk models. By the space-time fractional diffusion equation we mean an evolution equation obtained from the standard linear diffusion equation by replacing the second-order space derivative with a Riesz-Fell...
متن کاملAnalysis of a discrete non-Markovian random walk approximation for the time fractional diffusion equation
The time fractional diffusion equation (TFDE) is obtained from the standard diffusion equation by replacing the first-order time derivative with a fractional derivative of order α ∈ (0, 1). In this work, an explicit finite-difference scheme for TFDE is presented. Discrete models of a non-Markovian random walk are generate for simulating random variables whose spatial probability density evolves...
