The randomly stopped geometric Brownian motion
Abstract:
In this short note we compute the probability density function of the random variable X-T, where X-t is a geometric Brownian motion, and where T is a random variable independent of X-t and has either a Gamma distribution or it is uniformly distributed. In the last section of the note, the distribution obtained for X-T is fitted to the data consisting in the academic production of a set of mathematicians. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
