Abstract
We derive a nonlinear integral equation to calculate Root.s solution of the Skorokhod embedding problem for atom-free target measures. We then use this to efficiently generate bounded time.space increments of Brownian motion and give a parabolic version of Muller.s classic .Random walk over spheres. algorithm.
