Perturbed Bessel processes

From MaRDI portal





Let \(B_t\), \(t\geq 0\), \(B_0=0\), be a Brownian motion. The \(\alpha\)-perturbed Bessel process of dimension \(d>1\) starting from \(a\geq 0\) is defined as follows: It is a non-negative process \(R_{d,\alpha} (t)\), \(t\geq 0\), such that \[ R_{d,\alpha}(t)= a+B_t+ \frac{d-1}{2} \int_0^t \frac{ds}{R_{d,\alpha}(s)}+ \alpha(M_t^R-a), \] where \(M_t^R= \sup_{0\leq s\leq t}R_{d,\alpha}(s)\). (The modification of this definition for the case \(d=1\) is presented as well.) The authors show that a perturbed Bessel process of dimension \(d\geq 1\) can be represented in terms of an ordinary Bessel process of dimension \(d\) by means of space-time transformation. Ray-Knight theorems on local time for the perturbed Bessel process of dimension \(d=3\) and some properties of these processes are presented. The authors consider also the problem of extending the definition of the perturbed Bessel process to dimension \(0< d<1\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0893.00035].
