Exponential Functionals of Brownian Motion and Related Processes
Yor,
M., Universite Paris VI, France
This volume collects papers
about the laws of geometric Brownian motions and their time-integrals, written by the
author and coauthors between 1988 and 1998. These functionals play an important role in
Mathematical Finance, as well as in (probabilistic) studies related to hyperbolic
geometry, and also to random media. Throughout the volume, connections with more recent
studies involving exponential functionals of Lévy processes are indicated. Some papers
originally published in French are made available in English for the first time.
Keywords: Geometric Brownian
