This note studies the 1D stochastic heat equation driven by a one-dimensional Brownian motion. We prove that the associated Markov process satisfies the strong Feller property under mild non-degeneracy conditions. The approach combines…
We study a real-valued L\'evy-type process $X$, which is locally $\alpha$-stable in the sense that its jump kernel is a combination of a `principal' (state dependent) $\alpha$-stable part with a `residual' lower order part. We show that…
It is well understood that, when numerically simulating SDEs with general noise, achieving a strong convergence rate better than $O(\sqrt{h})$ (where h is the step size) requires the use of certain iterated integrals of Brownian motion,…
Brownian motions on a metric graph are defined, their Feller property is proved, and their generators are characterized. This yields a version of Feller's theorem for metric graphs.
Fractional Brownian motion can be represented as an integral of a deterministic kernel w.r.t. an ordinary Brownian motion either on infinite or compact interval. In previous literature fractional L\'evy processes are defined by integrating…
The linear fractional stable motion generalizes two prominent classes of stochastic processes, namely stable L\'evy processes, and fractional Brownian motion. For this reason it may be regarded as a basic building block for continuous time…
The Airy processes describe spatial fluctuations in wide range of growth models, where each particular Airy process arising in each case depends on the geometry of the initial profile. We show how the coupling method, developed in the…
Motivated by L\'{e}vy's characterization of Brownian motion on the line, we propose an analogue of Brownian motion that has as its state space an arbitrary closed subset of the line that is unbounded above and below: such a process will be…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions guaranteeing that the coupling for L\'evy processes (with non-degenerate jump part) is successful. Our method relies on explicit formulae for the transition semigroup of a compound Poisson process…
The L\'evy walk is a non-Brownian random walk model that has been found to describe anomalous dynamic phenomena in diverse fields ranging from biology over quantum physics to ecology. Recurrently occurring problems are to examine whether…
We consider a stochastic delay differential equation driven by a general Levy process. Both, the drift and the noise term may depend on the past, but only the drift term is assumed to be linear. We show that the segment process is…
Since the classical work of L\'evy, it is known that the local time of Brownian motion can be characterized through the limit of level crossings. While subsequent extensions of this characterization have primarily focused on Markovian or…
The theory of monotonicity and duality is developed for general one-dimensional Feller processes. Moreover it is shown that local monotonicity conditions (conditions on the L\'evy kernel) are sufficient to prove the well-posedness of the…
Conditional independence and graphical models are crucial concepts for sparsity and statistical modeling in higher dimensions. For L\'evy processes, a widely applied class of stochastic processes, these notions have not been studied. By the…
In this paper, we study the homogenization of a diffusion process with jumps, that is, Feller process generated by an integro-differential operator. This problem is closely related to the problem of homogenization of boundary value problems…
Analogues of stepping--stone models are considered where the site--space is continuous, the migration process is a general Markov process, and the type--space is infinite. Such processes were defined in previous work of the second author by…
We characterize the class of exchangeable Feller processes evolving on partitions with boundedly many blocks. In continuous-time, the jump measure decomposes into two parts: a $\sigma$-finite measure on stochastic matrices and a collection…
We study a class of multitype branching L\'evy processes, where particles move according to type-dependent L\'evy processes, switch types via an irreducible Markov chain, and branch according to type-dependent laws. This framework…
In this paper, we study recurrence and transience of L\'evy-type processes, that is, Feller processes associated with pseudo-differential operators. Since the recurrence property of L\'evy-type processes in dimensions greater than two is…
Scaling properties of time series are usually studied in terms of the scaling laws of empirical moments, which are the time average estimates of moments of the dynamic variable. Nonlinearities in the scaling function of empirical moments…
