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…
The purpose of this paper is to construct the law of a L\'evy process conditioned to avoid zero, under mild technicals conditions, two of them being that the point zero is regular for itself and the L\'evy process is not a compound Poisson…
We propose a new approach to the problem of the first passage time. Our method is applicable not only to the Wiener process but also to the non--Gaussian L$\acute{\rm e}$vy flights or to more complicated stochastic processes whose…
Let $X$ be a L\'evy process with absolutely continuous L\'evy measure $\nu$. Small time polynomial expansions of order $n$ in $t$ are obtained for the tails $P(X_{t}\geq{}y)$ of the process, assuming smoothness conditions on the L\'evy…
We study the distribution and various properties of exponential functionals of hypergeometric Levy processes. We derive an explicit formula for the Mellin transform of the exponential functional and give both convergent and asymptotic…
We develop a method that relates the truncated cumulant-function of the fourth order with the L\'evian cumulant-function. This gives us explicit formulas for the L\'evy-parameters, which allow a real-time analysis of the state of a…
This article establishes a universal robust limit theorem under a sublinear expectation framework. Under moment and consistency conditions, we show that, for $\alpha \in(1,2)$, the i.i.d. sequence \[ \left \{ \left(…
We introduce a general theory on stationary approximations for locally stationary continuous-time processes. Based on the stationary approximation, we use $\theta$-weak dependence to establish laws of large numbers and central limit type…
In this article, we define the new concept of local coupling property for Markov processes and study its relationship with distributional properties of the transition probability. In the special case of L\'evy processes we show that this…
We study the small-time asymptotics of sample paths of L\'evy processes and L\'evy-type processes. Namely, we investigate under which conditions the limit $$\limsup_{t \to 0} \frac{1}{f(t)} |X_t-X_0|$$ is finite resp.\ infinite with…
In this paper, we consider a class of generalized continuous-state branching processes obtained by Lamperti type time changes of spectrally positive L\'evy processes using different rate functions. When explosion occurs to such a process,…
L\'evy noise influences diverse non-equilibrium systems across scales, including quantum devices, active biological matter, and financial markets. While such noise is pervasive, its overall impact on activated transitions between metastable…
We establish integral tests and laws of the iterated logarithm at 0 and at $+\infty$, for the upper envelope of positive self-similar Markov processes. Our arguments are based on the Lamperti representation, time reversal arguments and on…
We discuss the first passage time problem in the semi-infinite interval, for homogeneous stochastic Markov processes with L{\'e}vy stable jump length distributions $\lambda(x)\sim\ell^{\alpha}/|x|^{1+\alpha}$ ($|x|\gg\ell$), namely,…
Let $X=(X_t, t\geq 0)$ be a self-similar Markov process taking values in $\mathbb{R}$ such that the state 0 is a trap. In this paper, we present a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a self-similar recurrent extension of…
Constructing \Levy-driven Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes is a task closely related to the notion of self-decomposability. In particular, their transition laws are linked to the properties of what will be hereafter called the \emph{a-reminder}…
Conditioning Markov processes to avoid a set is a classical problem that has been studied in many settings. In the present article we study the question if a Levy process can be conditioned to avoid an interval and, if so, the path behavior…
We consider a general d-dimensional Levy-type process with killing. Combining the classical Dyson series approach with a novel polynomial expansion of the generator A(t) of the Levy-type process, we derive a family of asymptotic…
We consider random walks and L\'evy processes in a homogeneous group $G$. For all $p > 0$, we completely characterise (almost) all $G$-valued L\'evy processes whose sample paths have finite $p$-variation, and give sufficient conditions…
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…
