The escape from a potential well is an archetypal problem in the study of stochastic dynamical systems, representing real-world situations from chemical reactions to leaving an established home range in movement ecology. Concurrently,…
We consider SDEs driven by multiplicative pure jump L\'{e}vy noises, where L\'evy processes are not necessarily comparable to $\alpha$-stable-like processes. By assuming that the SDE has a unique solution, we obtain gradient estimates of…
We solve a problem of non-convex stochastic optimisation with help of simulated annealing of Levy flights of a variable stability index. The search of the ground state of an unknown potential is non-local due to big jumps of the Levy…

A jumping process, defined in terms of jump size distribution and waiting time distribution, is presented. The jumping rate depends on the process value. The process, which is Markovian and stationary, relaxes to an equilibrium and is…
L\'evy walks (LWs) are spatiotemporally coupled random-walk processes describing superdiffusive heat conduction in solids, propagation of light in disordered optical materials, motion of molecular motors in living cells, or motion of…
When is it possible to interpret a given Markov process as a L\'evy-like process? Since the class of L\'evy processes can be defined by the relation between transition probabilities and convolutions, the answer to this question lies in the…
The search for hidden targets is a fundamental problem in many areas of science, engineering, and other fields. Studies of search processes often adopt a probabilistic framework, in which a searcher randomly explores a spatial domain for a…
