Suppose that $X=\{X_t, t\ge 0\}$ is a supercritical superprocess on a locally compact separable metric space $(E, m)$. Suppose that the spatial motion of $X$ is a Hunt process satisfying certain conditions and that the branching mechanism…

Given an increasing process $(A_t)_{t\geq 0}$, we characterize the right-continuous non-decreasing functions $f: \R_+\to \R_+$ that map $A$ to a pure-jump process. As an example of application, we show for instance that functions with…

We analyze a specific class of random systems that are driven by a symmetric L\'{e}vy stable noise. In view of the L\'{e}vy noise sensitivity to the confining "potential landscape" where jumps take place (in other words, to environmental…

We establish uniqueness for a class of first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations with Hamiltonians that arise from the large deviations of the empirical measure and empirical flux pair of weakly interacting Markov jump processes. As a corollary…

We show some Chung-type $\liminf$ law of the iterated logarithm results at zero for a class of (pure-jump) Feller or L\'evy-type processes. This class includes all L\'evy processes. The norming function is given in terms of the symbol of…

For a positive self-similar Markov process, X, we construct a local time for the random set, $\Theta$, of times where the process reaches its past supremum. Using this local time we describe an exit system for the excursions of X out of its…

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…

Let $X$ be an isotropic unimodal L\'{e}vy jump process on $\mathbb{R}^d$. We develop probabilistic methods which in many cases allow us to determine whether $X$ satisfies the elliptic Harnack inequality (EHI), by looking only at the jump…

We consider the problem of finding a stopping time that minimises the $L^1$-distance to $\theta$, the time at which a L\'evy process attains its ultimate supremum. This problem was studied in [12] for a Brownian motion with drift and a…

In the present paper we obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of equivalent martingale measures for L\'{e}vy-driven moving averages and other non-Markovian jump processes. The conditions that we obtain are, under mild assumptions,…

In this paper we study the Wiener-Hopf factorization for a class of L\'evy processes with double-sided jumps, characterized by the fact that the density of the L\'evy measure is given by an infinite series of exponential functions with…

The large deviations theory for heavy-tailed processes has seen significant advances in the recent past. In particular, Rhee et al. (2019) and Bazhba et al. (2020) established large deviation asymptotics at the sample-path level for L\'evy…

We consider a L\'evy process that starts from $x<0$ and conditioned on having a positive maximum. When Cram\'er's condition holds, we provide two weak limit theorems as $x\to -\infty$ for the law of the (two-sided) path shifted at the first…
