More precisely, we consider particles on the real line starting at the points of a Poisson point process with intensity measure $\\mathfrak{m}$ and moving independently of each other according to the law of some Gaussian process $\\xi$. We classify all pairs $(\\mathfrak{m},\\xi)$ generating a stationary particle system, obtaining three families of examples. In the first, trivial family, the measure $\\mathfrak{m}$ is arbitrary, whereas the process $\\xi$ is stationary. In the second family, the measure $\\mathfrak{m}$ is a multiple of the Lebesgue measure, and $\\xi$ is essentially a Gaussian stationary increment process with linear drift. In the third, most interesting family, the measure $\\mathfrak{m}$ has a density of the form $\\alpha e^{-\\lambda x}$, where $\\alpha >0$, $\\lambda\\in\\mathbb{R}$, whereas the process $\\xi$ is of the form $\\xi(t)=W(t)-\\lambda\\sigma ^2(t)/2+c$, where $W$ is a zero-mean Gaussian process with stationary increments, $\\sigma ^2(t)=\\operatorname {Var}W(t)$, and $c\\in\\mathbb{R}$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-11-15T09:45:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "gaussian processes", "stationary systems", "gaussian stationary increment process", "stationary particle system", "zero-mean gaussian process" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0903.2738K" } } }
