A PATH TRANSFORMATION AND ITS APPLICATIONS TO FLUCTUATION THEORY
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 April 1999
Abstract
We first establish a combinatorial result on deterministic real chains. This is then applied to prove a path transformation for chains with exchangeable increments. From this transformation we derive an identity on order statistics due to Port, together with some extensions. Then we give an interpretation of these results in continuous time. We extend some identities involving quantiles and occupation times for processes with exchangeable increments. In particular, this yields an extension of the uniform law for bridges obtained by Knight.
