Level curves, crossings and specular points for Gaussian models.
Résumé
Using generalizations of the well known Rice formula and applying the general method related to m-dependent processes that we settled in earlier works, allow one to obtain representations into the Ito-Wiener Chaos and CLTs for curve-crossings number. This approach not only explains heuristic considerations of Longuet-Higgins on specular points and related problems in the context of sea modelling, but goes far beyond when providing asymptotic results. These results on curve-crossings may also be applied in other fields. One example is the study of the estimator of the natural frequency of a harmonic oscillator.
