We connect boundary conditions for one-sided pseudo-differential operators with the generators of modified one-sided L\'evy processes. On one hand this allows modellers to use appropriate boundary conditions with confidence when restricting…

In this work, by using Levi's parametrix method we first construct the fundamental solution of the critical non-local operator perturbed by gradient. Then, we use the obtained estimates to prove the existence and uniqueness of strong…

L\'evy stable (jump-type) processes are examples of intrinsically nonlocal random motions. This property becomes a serious obstacle if one attempts to model conditions under which a particular L\'evy process may be subject to physically…

In this work we consider the following $\alpha$-stable-like operator (a class of pseudo-differential operator) $$ {\mathscr L} f(x):=\int_{\mathbb R^d}[f(x+\sigma_x y)-f(x)-1_{\alpha\in[1,2)}1_{|y|\leq 1}\sigma_x y\cdot\nabla f(x)]\nu_x(d…

We consider stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by Feller processes which are themselves solutions of multivariate Levy driven SDEs. The solutions of these 'iterated SDEs' are shown to be non-Markovian. However, the process…

We consider the linear non-local operator $\mathcal{L}$ denoted by \[ \mathcal{L} u (x) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^d} \left(u(x+z)-u(x)\right) a(x,z)J(z)\,d z. \] Here $a(x,z)$ is bounded and $J(z)$ is the jumping kernel of a L\'evy process, which…

Let $L$ be a L\'evy-type generator whose L\'evy measure is controlled from below by that of a non-degenerate $\alpha$-stable ($0<\alpha<2$) process. In this paper, we study the martingale problem for the operator $\mathcal{L}_{t}=L+K_{t}$,…
