Brownian motion of sol particles under ultramicroscopes and for bigger particles even under ordinary microscopes. The Brownian motion becomes progressively less prominent, as the particles grow in size or the viscosity of the medium increases. Brownian motion of sol particles Colloidal particles in a sol are continuously bombarded by the molecules of the dispersion medium on all sides. The impacts are however not equal in every direction. As a result, the sol particles show random or zig-zag movements. This random or zig-zag motion of the colloidal particles in a sol is called Brownian motion or Brownian movement. The phenomenon of Brownian motion was observed by
Brownian model of financial markets for buying or selling). Another assumption is that asset prices have no jumps, that is there are no surprises in the market. This last assumption is removed in jump diffusion models. Consider a financial market consisting of formula_1 financial assets, where one of these assets, called a "bond" or "money market", is risk free while the remaining formula_2 assets, called "stocks", are risky. A "financial market" is defined as formula_3 that satisfies the following: Let formula_17 be a probability space, and a formula_18 be D-dimensional Brownian motion stochastic process, with the natural filtration: If formula_20 are the measure 0 (i.e.
