Estimation methods for the L\'{e}vy density of a L\'{e}vy process are developed under mild qualitative assumptions. A classical model selection approach made up of two steps is studied. The first step consists in the selection of a good…

We consider a process given by a two-dimensional fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter 1/3 < H < 1/2, along with an associated L\'evy area, and prove the smoothness of a density for this process with respect to Lebesgue measure.

There are given sufficient conditions under which mixtures of dilations of L\'evy spectral measures, on a Hilbert space, are L\'evy measures again. We introduce some random integrals with respect to infinite dimensional L\'evy processes,…

Bayesian inference for Markov processes has become increasingly relevant in recent years. Problems of this type often have intractable likelihoods and prior knowledge about model rate parameters is often poor. Markov Chain Monte Carlo…

This work is about parameter estimation for a fast-slow stochastic system with non-Gaussian $\alpha$-stable L\'evy noise. When the observations are only available for slow components, a system parameter is estimated and the accuracy for…

We extend the It\=o formula \cite{MR1837298}*{Theorem 2.3} for semimartingales with rcll paths. We also comment on Local time process of such semimartingales. We apply the It\=o formula to L\'evy processes to obtain existence of solutions…
