Brownian web paths from a random space time point. The introduction of this topology allowed them to prove the convergence of the coalescing random walks to a unique limiting object and characterize it. They named this limiting object Brownian web. An extension of the Brownian web, called the Brownian net, has been introduced by Sun and Swart by allowing the coalescing Brownian motions to undergo branching. An alternative construction of the Brownian net was given by Newman, Ravishankar and Schertzer. For a recent survey, see Schertzer, Sun and Swart. Brownian web In probability theory, the Brownian web is an uncountable collection of
Rotational Brownian motion imposed electric field. Rotational Brownian motion was first discussed by Peter Debye, who applied Einstein's theory of translational Brownian motion to the rotation of molecules having permanent electric dipoles. Debye ignored inertial effects and assumed that the molecules were spherical, with an intrinsic, fixed dipole moment. He derived expressions for the dielectric relaxation time and for the permittivity. These formulae have been successfully applied to many materials. However, Debye's expression for the permittivity predicts that the absorption tends toward a constant value when the frequency of the applied electric field becomes very large—the "Debye plateau". This is not observed; instead,
