Sample Path Properties of the Fractional Wiener--Weierstrass Bridge

Abstract

Fractional Wiener–Weierstrass bridges are a class of Gaussian processes that arise from replacing the trigonometric function in the construction of classical Weierstrass functions by a fractional Brownian bridge. We investigate the sample path properties of such processes, including local and uniform moduli of continuity, $\Phi$-variation, Hausdorff dimension, and location of the maximum. Our analysis relies heavily on upper and lower bounds of fractional integrals, where we establish a novel improvement of the classical Hardy–Littlewood inequality for fractional integrals of a special class of step functions.
