    Comparison results for the lower tail of Gaussian seminorms

    Let ξ=(ξ n ) be i.i.d.N(0, 1) random variables andq(x), q′(x):R →[0, ∞) be seminorms. We investigate necessary and sufficient conditions that the ratio ofP(q(ξ)<ε) andP(q′(ξ)<ε)...

    Small ball estimates for Brownian motion and the Brownian sheet

    Small ball estimates are obtained for Brownian motion and the Brownian sheet when balls are given by certain Hölder norms. As an application of these results we include a functional form of Chung's LIL in this...

    Small ball probabilities for Gaussian processes with stationary increments under Hölder norms

    Small ball probabilities are estimated for Gaussian processes with stationary increments when the small balls are given by various Hölder norms. As an application we establish results related to Chung's functi...

    Small Ball Estimates for Gaussian Processes under Sobolev Type Norms

    A sharp small ball estimate under Sobolev type norms is obtained for certain Gaussian processes in general and for fractional Brownian motions in particular. New method using the techniques in large deviation ...

    Small Deviations for Gaussian Markov Processes Under the Sup-Norm

    Let {X(t); 0≤t≤1} be a real-valued continuous Gaussian Markov process with mean zero and covariance σ(s, t) = EX(s) X(t) ≠ 0 for 0<s, t<1. It is known that we can write σ(s, t) = G(min(s, t)) H(max(s, t)) with G>...

    A Functional LIL and Some Weighted Occupation Measure Results for Fractional Brownian Motion

    Weighted occupation measure results are obtained for fractional Brownian motion. Proofs depend on small ball probability estimates of the sup-norm for these processes, which are then used to obtain a functiona...

    Small Deviation Estimates for Some Additive Processes

    We study the small deviation probabilities for real valued additive processes. This naturally leads to the small deviation for the corresponding range process. Our general results can be applied to a wide rang...

    Small Deviations of Stable Processes via Metric Entropy

    Let X=(X(t)) tT be a symmetric α-stable, 0<α<2, process with paths in the dual E * of a certain Banach space E. Then there exists a (bounded, linear) operator u from E into some L α ...

    Small Deviations for a Family of Smooth Gaussian Processes

    We study the small deviation probabilities of a family of very smooth self-similar Gaussian processes. The canonical process from the family has the same scaling property as standard Brownian motion and plays ...
