Let WsW_{s} be a Brownian bridge, that is a Brownian motion constrained stich that W0=0W_{0} = 0 and Wt=xW_{t} = x . What is the distribution of WsW_{s} , for 0s<t0 \leq s < t ?

解析

{Wu}\{W_u\} 为标准布朗运动,给定 W0=0W_0=0Wt=xW_t=x(即布朗桥条件)。对 0s<t0\le s<t,有

Ws(Wt=x)N(stx, s(ts)t).W_s\mid (W_t=x)\sim N\left(\frac{s}{t}x,\ \frac{s(t-s)}{t}\right).

其中均值来自线性回归(联合正态),方差为

Var(Ws)Cov(Ws,Wt)2Var(Wt)=ss2t=s(ts)t.\operatorname{Var}(W_s)-\frac{\operatorname{Cov}(W_s,W_t)^2}{\operatorname{Var}(W_t)} =s-\frac{s^2}{t}=\frac{s(t-s)}{t}.
