The Stationary Distribution of Reflected Brownian Motion in a Planar Region
نویسندگان
چکیده
Suppose given a smooth, compact planar region S and a smooth inward pointing vector field on ∂S. It is known that there is a diffusion process Z which behaves like standard Brownian motion inside S and reflects instantaneously at the boundary in the direction specified by the vector field. It is also known Z has a stationary distribution p. We find a simple, general explicit formula for p in terms of the conformal map of S onto the upper half plane. We also show that this formula remains valid when S is a bounded polygon and the vector field is constant on each side. This polygonal case arises as the heavy traffic diffusion approximation for certain two-dimensional queueing and storage processes.

On the exit distribution of partially reflected Brownian motion in planar domains
We show that the dimension of the exit distribution of planar partially reflected Brownian motion can be arbitrarily close to 2.
متن کاملDiscrete Approximations to Reflected Brownian Motion∗
In this paper we investigate three discrete or semi-discrete approximation schemes for reflected Brownian motion on bounded Euclidean domains. For a class of bounded domains D in R that includes all bounded Lipschitz domains and the von Koch snowflake domain, we show that the laws of both discrete and continuous time simple random walks on D ∩ 2Z moving at the rate 2 with stationary initial dis...

متن کاملOn the Reflected Geometric Brownian Motion with Two Barriers
In this paper, we are concerned with Reflected Geometric Brownian Motion (RGBM) with two barriers. And the stationary distribution of RGBM is derived by Markovian infinitesimal Generator method. Consequently the first passage time of RGBM is also discussed.
متن کاملThe Class of Distributions Associated with the Generalized Pollaczek-Khinchine Formula
The goal is to identify the class of distributions to which the distribution of the maximum of a Lévy process with no negative jumps and negative mean (equivalently, the stationary distribution of the reflected process) belongs. An explicit new distributional identity is obtained for the case where the Lévy process is an independent sum of a Brownian motion and a general subordinator (nondecrea...
