Abstract: We study a model of diffusion in a brownian potential. This model was firstly introduced by T. Brox (1986) as a continuous time analogue of random walk in random environment. We estimate the deviations of this process above or under its typical behavior. Our results rely on different tools such as a representation introduced by Y. Hu, Z. Shi and M. Yor, Kotani's lemma, introduced at first by K. Kawazu and H. Tanaka (1997), and a decomposition of hitting times developed in a recent article by A. Fribergh, N. Gantert and S. Popov (2008). Our results are in agreement with their results in the discrete case.


The author considers a model of diffusion in a Brownian potential first studied by \textit{T. Brox} [Ann. Probab. 14, 1206--1218 (1986; Zbl 0608.60072)] as a continuous time analogue of a random walk in random environment. He estimates the deviations of this process above or under its typical behavior. The tools employed are a time-change representation due to \textit{Y. Hu, Z. Shi} and \textit{M. Yor} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 351, No. 10, 3915--3934 (1999; Zbl 0932.60083)], Kotani's lemma first proved by \textit{K. Kawazu} and \textit{H. Tanaka} [J. Math. Soc. Japon 49, No. 2, 189--211 (1997; Zbl 0914.60058)], and a decomposition of hitting times due to \textit{A. Fribergh, N. Gantert} and \textit{S. Popov} [Probab. Theory Relat. Fields 147, No.~1--2, 43--88 (2010; Zbl 1193.60122)].
