Bounded Bessel processes and Ferrari-Spohn diffusions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We introduce a new diffusion process which arises as the noinfty limit of a Bessel process of dimension dge2 conditioned upon remaining bounded below one until time n. In addition to being interesting in its own right, we argue that the resulting diffusion process is a natural hard edge counterpart to the Ferrari-Spohn diffusion of arXiv:math/0308242. In particular, we show that the generator of our new diffusion has the same relation to the Sturm-Liouville problem for the Bessel operator that the Ferrari-Spohn diffusion does to the corresponding problem for the Airy operator.
