A similar identity holds for the Laplace transform of a generalized meander, which is expressed as the Laplace transform of the same auxiliary Markov process, with a different initial law.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-06-06T01:31:32.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "laplace transform", "brownian excursion", "generalized meander", "dual representations", "auxiliary markov process" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
