Recently, fractional Brownian motions are widely used to describe complex phenomena in several fields of natural science. In the terminology of probability theory the fractional Brownian motion is a Gaussian process {X(t) : t є R} with stationary increments which has a self-similar property, that is, there exists a constant H (for the Brownian motion H = 1/2, in general 0 < H < 1 for Gaussian processes) called the exponent of self-similarity of the process, such that, for any c > 0, two processes are subject to the same law (see [10]).
