Herein we develop a dynamical foundation for fractional Brownian motion. A clear relation is established between the asymptotic behavior of the correlation function and diffusion in a dynamical system. Then, assuming that scaling is applicable, we establish a connection between diffusion (either standard or anomalous) and the dynamical indicator known as the Hurst coefficient. We argue on the basis of numerical simulations that although we have been able to prove scaling only for "Gaussian" processes, our conclusions may well apply to a wider class of systems. On the other hand, systems exist for which scaling might not hold, so we speculate on the possible consequences of the various relations derived in the paper on such systems.

In this paper, the asymptotic behavior of stochastic differential equations driven by a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter H > 1/2 is studied. In particular, it is shown that the corresponding solutions generate a random dynamical system for which the existence and uniqueness of a random attractor is proved.

We study the asymptotic behavior of the sequenceSn=∑i=0n-1K(nαSiH1)(Si+1H2-SiH2),asntends to infinity, whereSH1andSH2are two independent subfractional Brownian motions with indicesH1andH2, respectively.Kis a kernel function and the bandwidth parameterαsatisfies some hypotheses in terms ofH1andH2. Its limiting distribution is a mixed normal law involving the local time of the sub-fractional Brownian motionSH1. We mainly use the techniques of Malliavin calculus with respect to sub-fractional Brownian motion.

Consider a fractional Brownian motion (fBM) [Formula: see text] with Hurst index [Formula: see text]. We construct a probability space supporting both BH and a fully simulatable process [Formula: see text] such that[Formula: see text] with probability one for any user-specified error bound [Formula: see text]. When [Formula: see text], we further enhance our error guarantee to the α-Hölder norm for any [Formula: see text]. This enables us to extend our algorithm to the simulation of fBM-driven stochastic differential equations [Formula: see text]. Under mild regularity conditions on the drift and diffusion coefficients of Y, we construct a probability space supporting both Y and a fully simulatable process [Formula: see text] such that[Formula: see text] with probability one. Our algorithms enjoy the tolerance-enforcement feature, under which the error bounds can be updated sequentially in an efficient way. Thus, the algorithms can be readily combined with other advanced simulation techniques to estimate the expectations of functionals of fBMs efficiently.

This paper gives a brief introduction to some important fractional and multifractional Gaussian processes commonly used in modelling natural phenomena and man-made systems. The processes include fractional Brownian motion (both standard and the Riemann-Liouville type), multifractional Brownian motion, fractional and multifractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes, fractional and mutifractional Reisz-Bessel motion. Possible applications of these processes are briefly mentioned.

In this paper we use the fractional stochastic integral given by Carmona et al. (2003, “Stochastic Integration With Respect to Fractional Brownian Motion,” Ann. I.H.P. Probab. Stat., 39(1), pp. 27–68) to study a delayed logistic equation driven by fractional Brownian motion which is a generalization of the classical delayed logistic equation. We introduce an approximate method to find the explicit expression for the solution. Our proposed method can also be applied to the other models and to illustrate this, two models in physiology are discussed.

In the paper a weighted quadratic variation based on a sequence of partitions for a class of Gaussian processes is considered. Conditions on the sequence of partitions and the process are established for the quadratic variation to converge almost surely and for a central limit theorem to be true. Also applications to bifractional and sub-fractional Brownian motion and the estimation of their parameters are provided.

There is much confusion in the literature over Hurst exponent (H). The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the difference between fractional Brownian motion (fBm) on the one hand and Gaussian Markov processes where H is different to 1/2 on the other. The difference lies in the increments, which are stationary and correlated in one case and nonstationary and uncorrelated in the other. The two- and one-point densities of fBm are constructed explicitly. The two-point density does not scale. The one-point density for a semi-infinite time interval is identical to that for a scaling Gaussian Markov process with H different to 1/2 over a finite time interval. We conclude that both Hurst exponents and one-point densities are inadequate for deducing the underlying dynamics from empirical data. We apply these conclusions in the end to make a focused statement about nonlinear diffusion.
