Let $A$ be the (rescaled) adjacency matrix of the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs $\cal G(N,p)$. For $N^{-1+\tau} \leqslant p\leqslant N^{-\tau}$, we study the fluctuation of $f(A)_{ii}$ on the global and mesoscopic spectral scales. We show that…

We define a new type of self-similarity for one-parameter families of stochastic processes, which applies to a number of important families of processes that are not self-similar in the conventional sense. This includes a new class of…

Nonparametric methods for the estimation of the Levy density of a Levy process are developed. Estimators that can be written in terms of the ``jumps'' of the process are introduced, and so are discrete-data based approximations. A model…

For $n$ equidistant observations of a L\'evy process at time distance $\Delta_n$ we consider the problem of testing hypotheses on the volatility, the jump measure and its Blumenthal-Getoor index in a non- or semiparametric manner.…

Levy processes, which have stationary independent increments, are ideal for modelling the various types of noise that can arise in communication channels. If a Levy process admits exponential moments, then there exists a parametric family…
