Using Baddeley's [1] extension of Crofton's differential equation we derive an elementary integral formula for the probability that three randomly chosen points in the unit n-ball in ℝn, with respect to Lebesgue measure, form an acute triangle. When the dimension is 2 this probability is 4/π2 − 1/8, while when the dimension is 3 it is 33/70.

Abstract Let X be a jump-diffusion process and X* its running supremum. In this paper we first show that for any t > 0, the law of the pair (X*t, Xt) has a density with respect to the Lebesgue measure. This allows us to show that for any t > 0, the law of the pair formed by the random variable Xt and the running supremum X*t of X at time t can be characterized as a weak solution of a partial differential equation concerning the distribution of the pair (X*t, Xt). Then we obtain an expression of the marginal density of X*t for all t > 0.

By proving an extension of nonlinear Bihari's inequality (including Gronwall's inequality) to multi-parameter and non-Lebesgue measure, in this paper we first prove by successive approximation the existence and uniqueness of solution of stochastic differential equation with non-Lipschitz coefficients and driven by multi-parameter Brownian motion. Then we study two discretizing schemes for this type of equation, and obtain their L2-convergence speeds.

An ordinary differential equation (ODE) can be split into simpler sub equations and each  of the  sub equations is  solved subsequently by a numerical method. Such a procedure  involves splitting error and numerical error caused by the time stepping methods applied to sub equations.  The aim of the paper is to present  an integral formula for the global error expansion of a splitting  procedure combined with any  numerical  ODE solver.

We study the weak star accumulation points of sequences of probability measures of the form [XKn(x) ρn(x)dσ(x)]/ [∫Kn ρn(t)dσ(t)], where ρ(x)>0 is continuous on Rκ, σ denotes Lebesgue measure in Rκ and the sequence of compact sets Kn⊂Rκ converges in the sense of Hausdorff towards a compact set K. The motivation of our study was given by a result relating interval averages with the winding number. Similar probability measures are considered in partial differential equation problems and we extend our study to this case.
