Brownian tree Brownian tree A Brownian tree, whose name is derived from Robert Brown via Brownian motion, is a form of computer art that was briefly popular in the 1990s, when home computers started to have sufficient power to simulate Brownian motion. Brownian trees are mathematical models of dendritic structures associated with the physical process known as diffusion-limited aggregation. A Brownian tree is built with these steps: first, a "seed" is placed somewhere on the screen. Then, a particle is placed in a random position of the screen, and moved randomly until it bumps against the seed. The particle is left there,
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.
