Using the framework of random walks in random scenery, Cohen and Samorodnitsky (2006) introduced a family of symmetric $\alpha$-stable motions called local time fractional stable motions. When $\alpha=2$, these processes are precisely…
For a fixed dimension $k\ge 1$, let us consider the randomly growing simplical complex on the vertex set $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$ defined as follows: We start with the empty complex, and for each $k+1$-element subset $\sigma$ of $\{1,2,\dots,n\}$,…
The switch process alternates independently between 1 and -1, with the first switch to 1 occurring at the origin. The expected value function of this process is defined uniquely by the distribution of switching times. The relation between…
In this paper we study the conditional limit theorems for critical continuous-state branching processes with branching mechanism $\psi(\lambda)=\lambda^{1+\alpha}L(1/\lambda)$ where $\alpha\in [0,1]$ and $L$ is slowly varying at $\infty$.…
We investigate the random permutation matrices induced by the Chinese restaurant processes with $(\alpha,\theta)$-seating. When $\alpha=0,\theta>0$, the permutations are those following Ewens measures on symmetric groups, and have been…
This article deals with stability of continuous-time switched linear systems under constrained switching. Given a family of linear systems, possibly containing unstable dynamics, we characterize a new class of switching signals under which…
Long memory processes driven by L\'evy noise with finite second-order moments have been well studied in the literature. They form a very rich class of processes presenting an autocovariance function which decays like a power function. Here,…
We prove a new inequality bounding the probability that the random walk on a group has small total displacement in terms of the spectral and isoperimetric profiles of the group. This inequality implies that if the random walk on the group…
As an analogue to the explicit formula in the stable case, the asymptotic behavior at the origin of the renormalized zero resolvent of one-dimensional L\'evy processes is studied under certain regular variation conditions on the…
We prove a new variant of comparison principle for logarithmic $L_2$-small ball probabilities of Gaussian processes. As an application, we obtain logarithmic small ball asymptotics for some well-known processes with smooth covariances.
We present a constructive probabilistic proof of the fact that if $B=(B_t)_{t\ge0}$ is standard Brownian motion started at $0$, and $\mu$ is a given probability measure on $\mathbb{R}$ such that $\mu(\{0\})=0$, then there exists a unique…
We study the asymptotic behavior of the $\nu$-symmetric Riemman sums for functionals of a self-similar centered Gaussian process $X$ with increment exponent $0<\alpha<1$. We prove that, under mild assumptions on the covariance of $X$, the…
In this paper, we establish the existence of transition density for geometric $\alpha$-stable processes by using the property of self-decomposability--a fundamental concept in the theory of L\'evy processes. In contrast to traditional and…
Consider a multivariate L\'evy-driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process where the stationary distribution or background driving L\'evy process is from a parametric family. We derive the likelihood function assuming that the innovation term is…
In this article we derive formulas for the probability $P(\sup_{t\leq T} X(t)>u)$ $T>0$ and $P(\sup_{t<\infty} X(t)>u)$ where $X$ is a spectrally positive L\'evy process with infinite variation. The formulas are generalizations of the…
We consider a new method of the semiparametric statistical estimation for the continuous-time moving average L\'evy processes. We derive the convergence rates of the proposed estimators, and show that these rates are optimal in the minimax…
We consider a pure-jump stable Cox-Ingersoll-Ross ($\alpha$-stable CIR) process driven by a non-symmetric stable L{\'e}vy process with jump activity $\alpha$ $\in$ (1, 2) and we address the joint estimation of drift, scaling and jump…
In this paper we consider the question of smoothness of slowly varying functions satisfying the modern definition that, in the last two decades, gained prevalence in the applications concerning function spaces and interpolation. We show,…
Stable laws can be tempered by modifying the L\'evy measure to cool the probability of large jumps. Tempered stable laws retain their signature power law behavior at infinity, and infinite divisibility. This paper develops random walk…
It is noticed that a certain transform of the Mittag-Leffler function Ea is completely monotone for a in [1,2]. Using the explicit expressions of its Bernstein density, an identity in law between suprema of completely asymmetric Levy…
