On the dependence structure of certain multi-dimensional Ito processes and corresponding hitting times. (English) Zbl 1175.90120

From the abstract: Let \(X(t)=(X_1(t),X_2(t),\dots, X_k(t))\), \(t\geq 0\) be an Itô process assuming values in \(\mathbb{R}^k\). We show that, under certain conditions, the process \(X(t)\) has a certain dependence structure. We also consider the first passage problem involving \(X(t)\) and discuss the dependence structure among hitting times of \(X_1(t),\dots,X_k(t)\).
