Reflecting Brownian Motion and the Gauss–Bonnet–Chern Theorem
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use reflecting Brownian motion (RBM) to prove the well-known Gauss–Bonnet–Chern theorem for a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. The boundary integrand is obtained by carefully analyzing asymptotic behavior of local time RBM small times.

The Semimartingale Structure of Reflecting Brownian Motion
We prove that reflecting Brownian motion on a bounded Lipschitz domain is a semimartingale. We also extend the well-known Skorokhod equation to this case. In this note we study the semimartingale property and the Skorokhod equation of reflecting Brownian motion on a bounded Euclidean domain. A R d_ valued continuous stochastic process X = {Xt ; t > 0} is said to be a semimartingale if it can be...
متن کاملOn Reflecting Brownian Motion with Drift
Let B = (Bt)t≥0 be a standard Brownian motion started at zero, and let μ ∈ R be a given and fixed constant. Set B t = Bt+μt and S t = max 0≤s≤t B s for t ≥ 0 . Then the process: (x ∨ Sμ)−Bμ = ((x ∨ S t )−B t )t≥0 realises an explicit construction of the reflecting Brownian motion with drift −μ started at x in R+ . Moreover, if the latter process is denoted by Z = (Z t )t≥0 , then the classic Lé...
متن کاملSuper-brownian Motion with Reflecting Historical Paths
We consider super-Brownian motion whose historical paths reflect from each other, unlike those of the usual historical super-Brownian motion. We prove tightness for the family of distributions corresponding to a sequence of discrete approximations but we leave the problem of uniqueness of the limit open. We prove a few results about path behavior for processes under any limit distribution. In p...
