For $0<\alpha\leq2$, a super-$\alpha$-stable motion $X$ in $\mathsf{R}^d$ with branching of index $1+\beta\in(1,2)$ is considered. Fix arbitrary $t>0$. If $d<\alpha/\beta$, a dichotomy for the density function of the measure $X_t$ holds:…
We find an expression for the joint Laplace transform of the law of $(T_{[x,+\infty[},X_{T_{[x,+\infty[}})$ for a L\'evy process $X$, where $T_{[x,+\infty[}$ is the first hitting time of $[x,+\infty[$ by $X$. When $X$ is an $\alpha$-stable…
An identity in law for the area of a spectrally positive L\'evy stable process stopped at zero is established. Extending that of Lefebvre for Brownian motion, it involves an inverse Beta random variable and the square of a positive stable…
We prove several necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of (smooth) transition probability densities for L\'evy processes and isotropic L\'evy processes. Under some mild conditions on the characteristic exponent we calculate…
We study the persistence probability of a centered stationary Gaussian process on $\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{R}$, that is, its probability to remain positive for a long time. We describe the delicate interplay between this probability and the…
We consider a family of stochastic processes $\{X_t^\epsilon, t \in T\}$ on a metric space $T$, with a parameter $\epsilon \downarrow 0$. We study the conditions under which \lim_{\e \to 0} \P \Big(\sup_{t \in T} |X_t^\e| < \delta \Big) =1…
Let $X_t$ be any additive process in $\mathbb{R}^d.$ There are finite indices $\delta_i, \beta_i, i=1,2$ and a function $u$, all of which are defined in terms of the characteristics of $X_t$, such that \liminf_{t\to0}u(t)^{-1/\eta}X_t^*=…
The article is devoted to the problem of calculating the probability density of a strictly stable law at $x\to\infty$. To solve this problem, it was proposed to use the expansion of the probability density in a power series. A…
We study the probability of a real-valued stationary process to be positive on a large interval $[0,N]$. We show that if in some neighborhood of the origin the spectral measure of the process has density which is bounded away from zero and…
We study the exit time $\tau=\tau_{(0,\infty)}$ for 1-dimensional strictly stable processes and express its Laplace transform at $t^\alpha$ as the Laplace transform of a positive random variable with explicit density. Consequently, $\tau$…
We consider non-degenerate SDEs with a $\beta$-Holder continuous and bounded drift term and driven by a Levy noise $L$ which is of $\alpha$-stable type. If $\alpha \in [1,2)$ and $\beta \in (1 - \frac{\alpha}{2},1) $ we show pathwise…
In this paper we study the supremum functional $M_t=\sup_{0\le s\le t}X_s$, where $X_t$, $t\ge0$, is a one-dimensional L\'{e}vy process. Under very mild assumptions we provide a simple, uniform estimate of the cumulative distribution…
Let $X=\{X_{t},t\in R_{+}\}$ be a symmetric L\'{e}vy process with local time $\{L^{x}_{t} ; (x,t)\in R^{1}\times R^{1}_{+}\}$. When the L\'{e}vy exponent $\psi(\la)$ is regularly varying at zero with index $1<\beta\leq 2$, and satisfies…
Let $X(t),t\in \mathbb{R}$ be a stochastically continuous stationary max-stable process with Fr\'{e}chet marginals $\Phi_\alpha, \alpha>0$ and set $M_X(T)=\sup_{t \in [0,T]} X(t),T>0$. In the light of the seminal articles [1,2], it follows…
Let $\{X(t) : t \in [0, \infty) \}$ be a centered stationary Gaussian process. We study the exact asymptotics of $\pr (\sup_{s \in [0,T]} X(t) > u)$, as $u \to \infty$, where $T$ is an independent of \{X(t)\} nonnegative random variable. It…
Consider a spectrally positive L\'evy process $Z$ with log-Laplace exponent $\Psi$ and a positive continuous function $R$ on $(0,\infty)$. We investigate the entrance from $\infty$ of the process $X$ obtained by changing time in $Z$ with…
Let $X_{\alpha}=\{X_{\alpha}(t),t\in T\}$, $\alpha>0$, be an $\alpha$-permanental process with kernel $u(s,t)$. We show that $X^{1/2}_{\alpha}$ is a subgaussian process with respect to the metric $\sigma (s,t)=…
We show that the law of the overall supremum $\bar{X}_t=\sup_{s\le t}X_s$ of a L\'evy process $X$ before the deterministic time $t$ is equivalent to the average occupation measure $\mu_t(dx)=\int_0^t\p(X_s\in dx)\,ds$, whenever 0 is regular…
We study a first passage time of a L\'evy process over a positive constant level. In the spectrally negative case we give conditions for absolutely continuity of the distributions of the first passage times. The tail asymptotics of their…
It is, perhaps, surprising that the location of the unique supremum of a stationary process on an interval can fail to be uniformly distributed over that interval. We show that this distribution is absolutely continuous in the interior of…
