چکیده
A Brownian time process is a Markov process subordinated to the absolute value of an independent one-dimensional Brownian motion. Its transition densities solve an initial value problem involving the square of the generator of the original Markov process. An apparently unrelated class of processes, emerging as the scaling limits of continuous time random walks, involve subordination to the inverse or hitting time process of a classical stable subordinator. The resulting densities solve fractional Cauchy problems, an extension that involves fractional derivatives in time. In this paper, we will show a close and unexpected connection between these two classes of processes, and consequently, an equivalence between these two families of partial differential equations.

متن کاملFractional Cauchy problems on bounded domains: survey of recent results
In a fractional Cauchy problem, the usual first order time derivative is replaced by a fractional derivative. This problem was first considered by Nigmatullin (1986), and Zaslavsky (1994) in R for modeling some physical phenomena. The fractional derivative models time delays in a diffusion process. We will give a survey of the recent results on the fractional Cauchy problem and its generalizati...
متن کاملSMALL DEVIATIONS OF RIEMANN–LIOUVILLE PROCESSES IN Lq–SPACES WITH RESPECT TO FRACTAL MEASURES
We investigate Riemann–Liouville processes RH ,H > 0, and fractional Brownian motions BH , 0 < H < 1, and study their small deviation properties in the spaces Lq([0, 1], μ). Of special interest are hereby thin (fractal) measures μ, i.e., those which are singular with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We describe the behavior of small deviation probabilities by numerical quantities of μ, called m...
متن کاملApplications of inverse tempered stable subordinators
The inverse tempered stable subordinator is a stochastic process that models power law waiting times between particle movements, with an exponential tempering that allows all moments to exist. This paper shows that the probability density function of an inverse tempered stable subordinator solves a tempered time-fractional diffusion equation, and its ‘‘folded’’ density solves a tempered time-fr...
