Let be $(X_t, t\geq 0)$ be a L\'evy process which is the sum of a Brownian motion with drift and a compound Poisson process. We consider the first passage time $\tau_x$ at a fixed level $x>0$ by $(X_t, t\geq 0)$ and $K_x:= X_{\tau_x}-x$ the…
Let $\mathcal{L}\{f(t)\} = \int_{0}^{\infty}e^{-st}f(t)dt$ denote the Laplace transform of $f$. It is well-known that if $f(t)$ is a piecewise continuous function on the interval $t:[0,\infty)$ and of exponential order for $t > N$; then…
In this article densities (and their derivatives) of subordinators and inverse subordinators are considered. Under minor restrictions, generally milder than the existing in the literature, using a useful modification of the saddle point…
This paper considers the problem of estimating probabilities of the form $\mathbb{P}(Y \leq w)$, for a given value of $w$, in the situation that a sample of i.i.d.\ observations $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ of $X$ is available, and where we…
In this paper, we consider the exponential functional \(A_{\infty}=\int_0^\infty e^{-\xi_s}ds\) of a L{\'e}vy process \(\xi_s\) and aim to estimate the characteristics of \(\xi_{s}\) from the distribution of \(A_{\infty}\). We present a new…
Distributional properties -including Laplace transforms- of integrals of Markov processes received a lot of attention in the literature. In this paper, we complete existing results in several ways. First, we provide the analytical solution…

L\'evy processes, known for their ability to model complex dynamics with skewness, heavy tails and discontinuities, play a critical role in stochastic modeling across various domains. However, inference for most L\'evy processes, whether in…
In the last decade the subordinated processes have become popular and found many practical applications. Therefore in this paper we examine two processes related to time-changed (subordinated) classical Brownian motion with drift (called…
We study the stochastic properties of the area under some function of the difference between (i) a spectrally positive L\'evy process $W_t^x$ that jumps to a level $x>0$ whenever it hits zero, and (ii) its reflected version $W_t$.…
Trawl processes belong to the class of continuous-time, strictly stationary, infinitely divisible processes; they are defined as Levy bases evaluated over deterministic trawl sets. This article presents the first nonparametric estimator of…
In this paper, we consider the problem of statistical inference for generalized Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes of the type \[ X_{t} = e^{-\xi_{t}} \left( X_{0} + \int_{0}^{t} e^{\xi_{u-}} d u \right), \] where \(\xi_s\) is a L{\'e}vy process.…
In this work we study drawdowns and drawups of general diffusion processes. The drawdown process is defined as the current drop of the process from its running maximum, while the drawup process is defined as the current increase over its…
Inverse problems involve making inference about unknown parameters of a physical process using observational data. This paper investigates an important class of inverse problems -- the estimation of the initial condition of a…
In this article, we introduce Mittag-Leffler L\'evy process and provide two alternative representations of this process. First, in terms of Laplace transform of the marginal densities and next as a subordinated stochastic process. Both…
In this paper we revisit the integral functional of geometric Brownian motion $I_t= \int_0^t e^{-(\mu s +\sigma W_s)}ds$, where $\mu\in\mathbb{R}$, $\sigma > 0$, and $(W_s )_s>0$ is a standard Brownian motion. Specifically, we calculate the…
Last passage times arise in a number of areas of applied probability, including risk theory and degradation models. Such times are obviously not stopping times since they depend on the whole path of the underlying process. We consider the…
