Let $Y$ be a spectrally positive L\'evy process with $E Y_1<0$, $C$ an independent subordinator with finite expectation, and $X=Y+C$. A curious distributional equality proved in Huzak et al., Ann. Appl. Probab. 14 (2004) 1278--1397, states…
For a spectrally positive strictly stable process with index in (1,2), the paper obtains i) the density of the time when the process makes first exit from an interval by hitting the interval's lower end point before jumping over its upper…
For a L\'evy process $X$ on a finite time interval consider the probability that it exceeds some fixed threshold $x>0$ while staying below $x$ at the points of a regular grid. We establish exact asymptotic behavior of this probability as…
Stable distributions are a celebrated class of probability laws used in various fields. The $\alpha$-stable process, and its exponentially tempered counterpart, the Classical Tempered Stable (CTS) process, are also prominent examples of…
A multiplicative identity in law connecting the hitting times of completely asymmetric $\alpha-$stable L\'evy processes in duality is established. In the spectrally positive case, this identity allows with an elementary argument to compute…
Consider a stable L\'evy process $X=(X_t,t\geq 0)$ and let $T_x$, for $x>0$, denote the first passage time of $X$ above the level $x$. In this work, we give an alternative proof of the absolute continuity of the law of $T_x$ and we obtain a…
Let $L:= -a(x) (-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}+ (b(x), \nabla)$, where $\alpha\in (0,2)$, and $a:\rd\to (0,\infty)$, $b: \rd\to \rd$. Under certain regularity assumptions on the coefficients $a$ and $b$, we associate with the $C_\infty(\rd)$-closure…
We consider a critical superprocess $\{X;\mathbf P_\mu\}$ with general spatial motion and spatially dependent stable branching mechanism with lowest stable index $\gamma_0 > 1$. We first show that, under some conditions, $\mathbf…
According to a theorem of S. Schumacher, for a diffusion X in an environment determined by a stable process that belongs to an appropriate class and has index a, it holds that X_t/(log t)^a converges in distribution, as t goes to infinity,…
Let {X(t)}_{t\ge0} be a locally bounded and infinitely divisible stochastic process, with no Gaussian component, that is self-similar with index H>0. Pick constants \gamma >H and c>0. Let \nu be the L\'evy measure on R^{[0,\infty)} of X,…
In this paper, we introduce a linear stochastic volatility model driven by $\alpha$-stable processes, which admits a unique positive solution. To preserve positivity, we modify the classical forward Euler-Maruyama scheme and analyze its…
This paper provides the second term in the small time asymptotic expansion of the spectral heat content of a rotationally invariant $\alpha$--stable process, $0<\alpha \leq 2$, for the interval $(a,b)$. The small time behavior of the…
Let $X(t,\omega),$ $t \in \textit{R}$ be a symmetric stable process with index $\alpha \in (1,2]$ and $a_n$ be the Fourier-Jacobi coefficients of $f \in L^p,$ where $p \geq \alpha.$ For $\gamma, \delta> 0,$ $t \in [-1,1],$ define…
We consider the exponential functional $A_{\infty}=\int_0^{\infty} e^{\xi_s} ds$ associated to a Levy process $(\xi_t)_{t \geq 0}$. We find the asymptotic behavior of the tail of this random variable, under some assumptions on the process…
This article uses a combination of three ideas from simulation to establish a nearly optimal polynomial upper bound for the joint density of the stable process and its associated supremum at a fixed time on the entire support of the joint…
Let $p_t(x)$, $f_t(x)$ and $q_t^*(x)$ be the densities at time $t$ of a real L\'evy process, its running supremum and the entrance law of the reflected excursions at the infimum. We provide relationships between the asymptotic behaviour of…
Let $u(s,t)$ be a continuous potential density of a symmetric L\'evy process or diffusion with state space $T$ killed at $T_{0}$, the first hitting time of $0$, or at $\lambda \wedge T_{0}$, where $\lambda$ is an independent exponential…

We consider the recurrence and transience problem for a time-homogeneous Markov chain on the real line with transition kernel $p(x,\mathrm{d}y)=f_x(y-x)\,\mathrm{d}y$, where the density functions $f_x(y)$, for large $|y|$, have a power-law…
