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
Fractional Brownian motion Friedrich Gauss. Prior to the introduction of the fractional Brownian motion, used the Riemann–Liouville fractional integral to define the process where integration is with respect to the white noise measure "dB"("s"). This integral turns out to be ill-suited to applications of fractional Brownian motion because of its over-emphasis of the origin . The idea instead is to use a different fractional integral of white noise to define the process: the Weyl integral for "t" > 0 (and similarly for "t" < 0). The main difference between fractional Brownian motion and regular Brownian motion is that while the increments in Brownian
