A Tutorial on Brownian Motion for Biostatisticians
This manuscript provides an in-depth exploration of Brownian Motion, a fundamental stochastic process in probability theory for Biostatisticians. It begins with foundational definitions and properties, including the construction of Brownian motion and its Markovian characteristics. The document delves into advanced topics such as the Karhunen-Loeve expansion, reflection principles, and Levy's modulus of continuity. Through rigorous proofs and theorems, the manuscript examines the non-differentiability of Brownian paths, the behavior of zero sets, and the significance of local time. The notes also cover important results like Donsker's theorem and Blumenthal's 0-1 law, emphasizing their implications in the study of stochastic processes.

A Tutorial on Asymptotic Properties for Biostatisticians with Applications to COVID-19 Data
Asymptotic properties of statistical estimators play a significant role both in practice and in theory. However, many asymptotic results in statistics rely heavily on the independent and identically distributed (iid) ass…

The discrete sum of geometric Brownian motions plays an important role in modeling stochastic annuities in insurance. It also plays a pivotal role in the pricing of Asian options in mathematical finance. In this paper, w…
A Gaussian Markov alternative to fractional Brownian motion for pricing financial derivatives
Replacing Black-Scholes' driving process, Brownian motion, with fractional Brownian motion allows for incorporation of a past dependency of stock prices but faces a few major downfalls, including the occurrence of arbitr…
Price modelling under generalized fractional Brownian motion
The Generalized fractional Brownian motion (gfBm) is a stochastic process that acts as a generalization for both fractional, sub-fractional, and standard Brownian motion. Here we study its use as the main driver for pric…
