We derive representations for finite-dimensional densities of the point processed associated with an Arratia flow with drift in terms of conditional expectations of the stochastic exponentials appearing in the analog of the Girsanov theorem for Arratia flows.
The rate of the weak convergence in the fractional step method for the Arratia flow is established in terms of the Wasserstein distance between the images of the Lebesque measure under the action of the flow. We introduce finite-dimensional densities describing sequences of collisions in the Arratia flow and derive an explicit expression for them. With the initial interval discretized, the convergence of the corresponding approximations of the point measure associated with the Arratia flow is discussed in terms of such densities.
A method of the approximation of a coalescing Harris flow with homeomorphic stochastic flows built as solutions to SDEs w.r.t. continuous martingales with spatial parameters in the sense of Kunita is proposed. The joint convergence of forward and backward flows as diffusions is obtained, as well as the joint convergence of forward and backward transformations of the real axe under the action of the flows.
An analog of the Trotter formula for the Arratia flow is presented. Perturbations of the Brownian web by mappings associated with an ordinary differential equation with a smooth right part are considered and proved to be convergent exclusively in the weak sense. The flow obtained as a limit is the Arratia flow with drift.
The asymptotics of sizes of clusters for the Arratia flow is considered, the Arratia flow being a system of coalescing Wiener processes starting from the real axis and independent before they meet. A cluster at time t is defined as a set of particles that have glued together not later than at t. The results obtained are remarked to hold for any Arratia flow with a Lipschitz drift.
