A Damped Telegraph Random Process with Logistic Stationary Distribution

Abstract: We introduce a stochastic process that describes a finite-velocity damped motion on the real line. Differently from the telegraph process, the random times between consecutive velocity changes have exponential distribution with linearly increasing parameters. We obtain the probability law of the motion, which admits a logistic stationary limit in a special case. Various results on the distributions of the maximum of the process and of the first passage time through a constant boundary are also given.

“…We note that the right-hand side of (31) is a logistic density with mean m and variance π 2 s 2 /3. In addition, if p = 1 2 then the mean m vanishes, and the density identifies with the stationary probability density function of a damped telegraph process, as obtained in Corollary 3.3 of [17]. We note that if λv = μc then lim t→+∞ p(x, t) = 0,…”

“…With the aim of discussing a nontrivial case, and motivated by previous studies (see [17] and [18]) involving finite-velocity random motions with stochastically decreasing random intertimes, in the following we assume that the random variables U k and D k have exponential distributions with linear rates λk and μk. Hence, the tail distribution functions arē…”

“…Probabilistic methods of solving Cauchy problems for the telegraph equation were developed in [11], [12], [14], and [25]. A generalization of the Goldstein-Kac model for the case of a damped telegraph process with logistic stationary distributions was given in [7]. A random motion with velocities alternating at Erlang-distributed random times was studied in [6].…”

“…The motions with the velocities alternated in gamma-or Erlang-distributed random times have been considered in [6][7][8]. Telegraph processes with random velocities [9,10] and with random jumps [11] have been also studied including the applications in queuing theory.…”
