Our main result is the martingale representations for Markov additive processes where the modulator is a Levy process. These processes have three parts: the modulator, the jumps of the ordinate triggered by the modulator, and the…

This paper is concerned with a class of multivariable stochastic Hamiltonian systems whose generalised position is related by an ordinary differential equation to the momentum governed by an Ito stochastic differential equation. The latter…

The translational motion of anisotropic or self-propelled colloidal particles is closely linked with the particle's orientation and its rotational Brownian motion. In the overdamped limit, the stochastic evolution of the orientation vector…
