Brownian motion on the discontinuous structure of matter". The direction of the force of atomic bombardment is constantly changing, and at different times the particle is hit more on one side than another, leading to the seemingly random nature of the motion. The many-body interactions that yield the Brownian pattern cannot be solved by a model accounting for every involved molecule. In consequence only probabilistic models applied to molecular populations can be employed to describe it. Two such models of the statistical mechanics, due to Einstein and Smoluchowski are presented below. Another, pure probabilistic class of models is the class of the
Fractional Brownian motion stochastic integrals". In general though, unlike integrals with respect to regular Brownian motion, fractional stochastic integrals are not semimartingales. Just as Brownian motion can be viewed as white noise filtered by formula_8 (i.e. integrated), fractional Brownian motion is white noise filtered by formula_9 (corresponding to fractional integration). Practical computer realisations of an "fBm" can be generated, although they are only a finite approximation. The sample paths chosen can be thought of as showing discrete sampled points on an "fBm" process. Three realizations are shown below, each with 1000 points of an "fBm" with Hurst parameter 0.75. Realizations of three different
