    We collect, scattered through literature, as well as we prove some new properties of two Markov processes that in many ways resemble Wiener and Ornstein--Uhlenbeck processes. Although processes considered in this paper were defined either in non-commutative probability context or through quadratic harnesses we define them once more as so to say 'continuous time ' generalization of a simple, symmetric, discrete time process satisfying simple conditions imposed on the form of its first two conditional moments. The finite dimensional distributions of the first one (say X=(X_{t})_{t\geq0} called q-Wiener) depends on one parameter q\in(-1,1] and of the second one (say Y=(Y_{t})_{t\inR} called ({\alpha},q)- Ornstein--Uhlenbeck) on two parameters ({\alpha},q)\in(0,\infty)\times(-1,1]. The first one resembles Wiener process in the sense that for q=1 it is Wiener process but also that for |q|<1 and \foralln\geq1: t^{n/2}H_{n}(X_{t}/\surdt|q), where (H_{n})_{n\geq0} are the so called q-Hermite polynomials, are martingales. It does not have however neither independent increments not allows continuous sample path modification. The second one resembles Ornstein--Uhlenbeck process. For q=1 it is a classical OU process. For |q|<1 it is also stationary with correlation function equal to exp(-{\alpha}|t-s|) and has many properties resembling those of its classical version. We think that these process are fascinating objects to study posing many interesting, open questions.Comment: 25 page

    In this article we construct a generalized Gaussian process coming from Coxeter groups of type B. It is given by creation and annihilation operators on an (α,q)(\alpha,q)-Fock space, which satisfy the commutation relation bα,q(x)bα,q(y)qbα,q(y)bα,q(x)=x,yI+αx,yq2N, b_{\alpha,q}(x)b_{\alpha,q}^\ast(y)-qb_{\alpha,q}^\ast(y)b_{\alpha,q}(x)=\langle x, y\rangle I+\alpha\langle \overline{x}, y \rangle q^{2N}, where x,yx,y are elements of a complex Hilbert space with a self-adjoint involution xxˉx\mapsto\bar{x} and NN is the number operator with respect to the grading on the (α,q)(\alpha,q)-Fock space. We give an estimate of the norms of creation operators. We show that the distribution of the operators bα,q(x)+bα,q(x)b_{\alpha,q}(x)+b_{\alpha,q}^\ast(x) with respect to the vacuum expectation becomes a generalized Gaussian distribution, in the sense that all mixed moments can be calculated from the second moments with the help of a combinatorial formula related with set partitions. Our generalized Gaussian distribution associates the orthogonal polynomials called the qq-Meixner-Pollaczek polynomials, yielding the qq-Hermite polynomials when α=0\alpha=0 and free Meixner polynomials when q=0q=0.Comment: 22 pages, 6 figure

    Noncolliding Brownian Motion with Drift and Time-Dependent Stieltjes-Wigert Determinantal Point Process

    Full text link
    Using the determinantal formula of Biane, Bougerol, and O'Connell, we give multitime joint probability densities to the noncolliding Brownian motion with drift, where the number of particles is finite. We study a special case such that the initial positions of particles are equidistant with a period aa and the values of drift coefficients are well-ordered with a scale σ\sigma. We show that, at each time t>0t >0, the single-time probability density of particle system is exactly transformed to the biorthogonal Stieltjes-Wigert matrix model in the Chern-Simons theory introduced by Dolivet and Tierz. Here one-parameter extensions (θ\theta-extensions) of the Stieltjes-Wigert polynomials, which are themselves qq-extensions of the Hermite polynomials, play an essential role. The two parameters aa and σ\sigma of the process combined with time tt are mapped to the parameters qq and θ\theta of the biorthogonal polynomials. By the transformation of normalization factor of our probability density, the partition function of the Chern-Simons matrix model is readily obtained. We study the determinantal structure of the matrix model and prove that, at each time t>0t >0, the present noncolliding Brownian motion with drift is a determinantal point process, in the sense that any correlation function is given by a determinant governed by a single integral kernel called the correlation kernel. Using the obtained correlation kernel, we study time evolution of the noncolliding Brownian motion with drift.Comment: v2: REVTeX4, 34 pages, 4 figures, minor corrections made for publication in J.
