Moment generating function of a first hitting place for the integrated Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process

Abstract

We consider the two-dimensional process (x(t),y(t)), where y(t)=dx(t)/dt is an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, Let T be the smallest t for which y(t) = [upsilon]. In this note we obtain an explicit expression, in terms of a parabolic cylinder function, for the moment generating function or the characteristic function of x(T) and we evaluate the expected value of x(T).
