Let {W(t), 0 ≦ t < ∞} be the standard Wiener process. The techniques of computing probabilities of the type are well known. The main purpose of this paper is to present ways of finding barrier-absorption probabilities when the barrier function is defined only on sub-intervals of [0, T].

Let {W(t), 0≦t&lt;∞} be the standard Wiener process. The computation schemes developed in the past are not computationally efficient for the absorption probabilities of the type P{sup0≦t≦T W(t) − f(t) ≧ 0} when either T is large or f(0) &gt; 0 is small. This paper gives an efficient and accurate algorithm to compute such probabilities, and some applications to other Gaussian stochastic processes are discussed.

Let {W(t), 0≦t<∞} be the standard Wiener process. The computation schemes developed in the past are not computationally efficient for the absorption probabilities of the type P{sup0≦t≦TW(t) − f(t) ≧ 0} when either T is large or f(0) > 0 is small. This paper gives an efficient and accurate algorithm to compute such probabilities, and some applications to other Gaussian stochastic processes are discussed.

Let {W(t), 0 ≦ t < ∞} be the standard Wiener process. The probabilities of the type P[sup0≦t ≦ TW(t) − f(t) ≧ 0] have been extensively studied when f(t) is a deterministic function. This paper discusses the probabilities of the type P{sup0≦t ≦ TW(t) − [f(t) + X(t)] ≧ 0} when X(t) is a stochastic process. By taking compound Poisson processes as X(t), the paper gives procedures for finding such probabilities.

Let {W(t), 0 ≦ t &lt; ∞} be the standard Wiener process. The main purpose of this paper is to present ways of obtaining probabilities of Wiener paths crossing certain curves on various intervals. The results are extended to other kinds of Gaussian processes.

Let Xt be a linear process defined by Xt = [sum ]k=0∞ ψkεt−k, where {ψk, k ≥ 0} is a sequence of real numbers and {εk, k = 0,±1,±2,...} is a sequence of random variables. Two basic results, on the invariance principle of the partial sum process of the Xt converging to a standard Wiener process on [0,1], are presented in this paper. In the first result, we assume that the innovations εk are independent and identically distributed random variables but do not restrict [sum ]k=0∞ |ψk| < ∞. We note that, for the partial sum process of the Xt converging to a standard Wiener process, the condition [sum ]k=0∞ |ψk| < ∞ or stronger conditions are commonly used in previous research. The second result is for the situation where the innovations εk form a martingale difference sequence. For this result, the commonly used assumption of equal variance of the innovations εk is weakened. We apply these general results to unit root testing. It turns out that the limit distributions of the Dickey–Fuller test statistic and Kwiatkowski, Phillips, Schmidt, and Shin (KPSS) test statistic still hold for the more general models under very weak conditions.

We shall consider the optimal control for a system governed by a stochastic differential equationwhere u(t, x) is an admissible control and W(t) is a standard Wiener process. By an optimal control we mean a control which minimizes the cost and in addition makes the corresponding Markov process stable.
