Abstract

Let BH be a d-dimensional fractional Brownian motion with Hurst index H∈(0,1), f:[0,1]\longrightarrowℝd a Borel function, and E⊂[0,1], F⊂ℝd are given Borel sets. The focus of this paper is on hitting probabilities of the non-centered Gaussian process BH+f. It aims to highlight how each component f, E and F is involved in determining the upper and lower bounds of ℙ\(BH+f)(E)∩ F≠ ∅ \. When F is a singleton and f is a general measurable drift, some new estimates are obtained for the last probability by means of suitables Hausdorff measure and capacity of the graph GrE(f). As application we deal with the issue of polarity of points for (BH+f)\vertE (the restriction of BH+f to the subset E⊂ (0,∞)).
