The geometric telegrapher's process has been proposed in 2002 as a model to describe the dynamics of the price of risky assets. In this contribution we consider a related stochastic process, whose trajectories have two alternating slopes, for which the random times between consecutive slope changes have exponential distribution with linearly increasing parameters. This leads to a process characterized by a damped behavior. We study the main features of the transient probability law of the process, and of its stationary limit.

Abstract
The geometric telegrapher's process has been proposed in 2002 as a model to describe the dynamics of the price of risky assets. In this contribution we consider a related stochastic process, whose trajectories have two alternating slopes, for which the random times between consecutive slope changes have exponential distribution with linearly increasing parameters. This leads to a process characterized by a damped behavior. We study the main features of the transient probability law of the process, and of its stationary limit.File in questo prodotto:
