Consider a storage system where the content is driven by a Brownian motion absent control. At any time, one may increase or decrease the content at a cost proportional to the amount of adjustment. A decrease of the content takes effect immediately, while an increase is realized after a fixed lead time $lt$. Holding costs are incurred continuously over time and are a convex function of the content. The objective is to find a control policy that minimizes the expected present value of the total costs. Due to the positive lead time for upward adjustments, one needs to keep track of all the outstanding upward adjustments as well as the actual content at time $t$ as there may also be downward adjustments during $[t,t+lt)$, i.e., the state of the system is a function on $[0,ell]$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first paper to study instantaneous control of stochastic systems in such a functional setting. We first extend the concept of $L^ atural$-convexity to function spaces and establish the $L^ atural$-convexity of the optimal cost function. We then derive various properties of the cost function and identify the structure of the optimal policy as a state-dependent two-sided reflection mapping making the minimum amount of adjustment necessary to keep the system states within a certain region.

Local perturbations of a Brownian motion are considered. As a limit we obtain a non-Markov process that behaves as a reflected Brownian motion on the positive half line until its local time at zero reaches some exponential level, then changes a sign and behaves as a reflected Brownian motion on the negative half line until some stopping time, etc.
We construct a $K$-rough path above either a space-time or a spatial fractional Brownian motion, in any space dimension $d$. This allows us to provide an interpretation and a unique solution for the corresponding parabolic Anderson model, understood in the renormalized sense. We also consider the case of a spatial fractional noise.
We consider the last zero crossing time $T_{mu,t}$ of a Brownian motion, with drift $mu eq 0$ in the time interval $[0, t]$. We prove the large deviation principle of ${T_{mu sqrt r t} : r > 0 }$ as $r$ tends to infinity. Moreover, motivated by the results on moderate deviations in the literature, we also prove a class of large deviation principles for the same random variables with different scalings, which are governed by the same rate function. Finally we compare some aspects of the classical moderate deviation results, and the results in this paper.
In this paper we obtain a Wiener-Hopf type factorization for a time-inhomogeneous arithmetic Brownian motion with deterministic time-dependent drift and volatility. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the very first step towards realizing the objective of deriving Wiener-Hopf type factorizations for (real-valued) time-inhomogeneous L{e}vy processes. In particular, we argue that the classical Wiener-Hopf factorization for time-homogeneous L{e}vy processes quite likely does not carry over to the case of time-inhomogeneous L{e}vy processes.
The generalized fractional Brownian motion is a Gaussian self-similar process whose increments are not necessarily stationary. It appears in applications as the scaling limit of a shot noise process with a power law shape function and non-stationary noises with a power-law variance function. In this paper we study sample path properties of the generalized fractional Brownian motion, including Holder continuity, path differentiability/non-differentiability, and functional and local Law of the Iterated Logarithms.
