In this paper, we will prove that the local time of a L\'evy process is of finite $p$-variation in the space variable in the classical sense, a.s. for any $p>2$, $t\geq 0$, if the L\'evy measure satisfies $\int_{R\setminus…
Distributional identities for a L\'evy process $X_t$, its quadratic variation process $V_t$ and its maximal jump processes, are derived, and used to make "small time" (as $t\downarrow0$) asymptotic comparisons between them. The…
This article provides an overview of recent work on descriptions and properties of the convex minorant of random walks and L\'evy processes which summarize and extend the literature on these subjects. The results surveyed include point…
In this paper we present some new limit theorems for power variation of $k$th order increments of stationary increments L\'evy driven moving averages. In the infill asymptotic setting, where the sampling frequency converges to zero while…
Subordinating a multivariate L\'evy process, the subordinate, with a univariate subordinator gives rise to a pathwise construction of a new L\'evy process, provided the subordinator and the subordinate are independent processes. The…
We study a first passage time of a L\'evy process over a positive constant level. In the spectrally negative case we give conditions for absolutely continuity of the distributions of the first passage times. The tail asymptotics of their…
Which Levy processes satisfy Hunt's hypothesis (H) is a long-standing open problem in probabilistic potential theory. The study of this problem for one-dimensional Levy processes suggests us to consider (H) from the point of view of the sum…
This paper is concerned with the behaviour of a L\'{e}vy process when it crosses over a positive level, $u$, starting from 0, both as $u$ becomes large and as $u$ becomes small. Our main focus is on the time, $\tau_u$, it takes the process…
We present an exact sampling method for the first passage event of a Levy process. The idea is to embed the process into another one whose first passage event can be sampled exactly, and then recover the part belonging to the former from…
We show on- and off-diagonal upper estimates for the transition densities of symmetric Levy and Levy-type processes. To get the an-diagonal estimates we prove a Nash type inequality for the related Dirichlet form. For the off-diagonal…
We analyze confining mechanisms for L\'{e}vy flights. When they evolve in suitable external potentials their variance may exist and show signatures of a superdiffusive transport. Two classes of stochastic jump - type processes are…
We investigate the windings around the origin of the two-dimensional Markov process (X,L) having the stable L\'evy process L and its primitive X as coordinates, in the non-trivial case when |L| is not a subordinator. First, we show that…
Let $\{D(s), s \geq 0 \}$ be a L\'evy subordinator, that is, a non-decreasing process with stationary and independent increments and suppose that $D(0) = 0$. We study the first-hitting time of the process $D$, namely, the process $E(t) =…
We introduce the (path-valued) Brownian frame process whose evaluation at time t is the sample path of the underlying Brownian motion run from time t-1 to t. Due to its connections with Gaussian Volterra processes and SDDEs this is an…
Symmetric matrix-valued dynamical systems are an important class of systems that can describe important processes such as covariance/second-order moment processes, or processes on manifolds and Lie Groups. We address here the case of…
We characterize the support of the law of the exponential functional $\int_0^\infty e^{-\xi_{s-}} \, d\eta_s$ of two one-dimensional independent L\'evy processes $\xi$ and $\eta$. Further, we study the range of the mapping $\Phi_\xi$ for a…
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…
In this paper, we study nonparametric estimation of the L\'{e}vy density for L\'{e}vy processes, with and without Brownian component. For this, we consider $n$ discrete time observations with step $\Delta$. The asymptotic framework is: $n$…
The law of a positive infinitely divisible process with no drift is characterized by its L\'evy measure on the paths space. Based on recent results of the two authors, it is shown that even for simple examples of such processes, the…
For a refracted spectrally negative Levy process, we find some new and fantastic formulas for its q-potential measures without killing. Unlike previous results, which are written in terms of the known q-scale functions, our formulas are…
