Brownian web is what we now call the Brownian web. Formally speaking, it is a collection of one-dimensional coalescing Brownian motions starting from every space-time point in formula_1. The fact that the Brownian web consists of an "uncountable" number of Brownian motions is what makes the construction highly non-trivial. Arratia gave a construction but was unable to prove convergence of coalescing random walks to a limiting object and characterize such a limiting object. Tóth and Werner in their study of the true self-repelling motion obtained many detailed properties of this limiting object and its dual but did not prove convergence of coalescing
Brownian motion consideration the velocity of the Brownian particle, "U", which depends on the collisions that tend to accelerate and decelerate it. The larger "U" is, the greater will be the collisions that will retard it so that the velocity of a Brownian particle can never increase without limit. Could such a process occur, it would be tantamount to a perpetual motion of the second type. And since equipartition of energy applies, the kinetic energy of the Brownian particle, formula_30, will be equal, on the average, to the kinetic energy of the surrounding fluid particle, formula_31. In 1906 Smoluchowski published a one-dimensional
