Brownian motion but rather a singular behavior in which the particle doesn't move at all. The Brownian motion can be modeled by a random walk. Random walks in porous media or fractals are anomalous. In the general case, Brownian motion is a non-Markov random process and described by stochastic integral equations. The French mathematician Paul Lévy proved the following theorem, which gives a necessary and sufficient condition for a continuous R-valued stochastic process "X" to actually be "n"-dimensional Brownian motion. Hence, Lévy's condition can actually be used as an alternative definition of Brownian motion. Let "X" = ("X", ..., "X") be a
Fractional Brownian motion Suppose we want to simulate the values of the "fBM" at times formula_12 using the Cholesky decomposition method. In order to compute formula_15, we can use for instance the Cholesky decomposition method. An alternative method uses the eigenvalues of formula_16: Note that the result is real-valued because formula_36. Note that since the eigenvectors are linearly independent, the matrix formula_39 is invertible. It is also known that where "B" is a standard Brownian motion and Where formula_47 is the Euler hypergeometric integral. Say we want to simulate an "fBm" at points formula_48. The integral may be efficiently computed by Gaussian quadrature.
