It is known that in many cases distributions of exponential integrals of Levy processes are infinitely divisible and in some cases they are also selfdecomposable. In this paper, we give some sufficient conditions under which distributions…
We show that all negative powers B_{a,b}^-{s} of the Beta distribution are infinitely divisible. The case b<1 follows by complete monotonicity, the case b > 1, s > 1 by hyperbolically complete monotonicity and the case b > 1, s < 1 by a…
Inspirations for this paper can be traced to Urbanik (1972) where convolution semigroups of multiple decomposable distributions were introduced. In particular, the classical gamma $\mathbb{G}_t$ and $\log \mathbb{G}_t$, $t>0$ variables are…
Ramachandran (1969, Theorem 8) has shown that for any univariate infinitely divisible distribution and any positive real number $\alpha$, an absolute moment of order $\alpha$ relative to the distribution exists (as a finite number) if and…
We consider a L\'evy process $Y(t)$ that is not permanently observed, but rather inspected at Poisson($\omega$) moments only, over an exponentially distributed time $T_\beta$ with parameter $\beta$. The focus lies on the analysis of the…
We study the exponential functional $\int_0^\infty e^{-\xi_{s-}} \, d\eta_s$ of two one-dimensional independent L\'evy processes $\xi$ and $\eta$, where $\eta$ is a subordinator. In particular, we derive an integro-differential equation for…
We define and study fractional versions of the well-known Gamma subordinator $\Gamma :=\{\Gamma (t),$ $t\geq 0\},$ which are obtained by time-changing $% \Gamma $ by means of an independent stable subordinator or its inverse. Their…
We prove limit theorems of an entirely new type for certain long memory regularly varying stationary infinitely divisible random processes. These theorems involve multiple phase transitions governed by how long the memory is. Apart from one…
In 2009, Yano, Yano and Yor proposed the question of studying the infinite divisibility of the $\alpha$-Cauchy variable $\mathcal{C}_\alpha$ for $\alpha > 1$. The particular case $\mathcal{C}_2$ is the well-known standard Cauchy variable,…
Multiplicative self-decomposable laws describe random variables that can be decomposed into a product of a scaled-down version of themselves and an independent residual term. Shanbhag et al.~(1977) have shown that the gamma distribution is…
A probability distribution is n-divisible if its nth convolution root exists. While modeling the dependence structure between several (re)insurance losses by an additive risk factor model, the infinite divisibility, that is the…
Consider a L\'evy process $Y(t)$ over an exponentially distributed time $T_\beta$ with mean $1/\beta$. We study the joint distribution of the running maximum $\bar{Y}(T_\beta)$ and the time epoch $G(T_\beta$) at which this maximum last…
We provide the increasing eigenfunctions associated to spectrally negative self-similar Feller semigroups, which have been introduced by Lamperti. These eigenfunctions are expressed in terms of a new family of power series which includes,…
In this article, we consider the space-time Fractional (nonlocal) diffusion equation $$\partial_t^\beta u(t,x)={\mathtt{L}_D^{\alpha_1,\alpha_2}} u(t,x), \ \ t\geq 0, \ x\in D, $$ where $\partial_t^\beta$ is the Caputo fractional derivative…
We consider three classes of linear differential equations on distribution functions, with a fractional order $\alpha\in [0,1].$ The integer case $\alpha =1$ corresponds to the three classical extreme families. In general, we show that…
In the present work, we provide the general expression of the normalized centered moments of the Fr\'echet extreme-value distribution. In order to try to represent a set of data corresponding to rare events by a Fr\'echet distribution, it…
An identity in law for the area of a spectrally positive L\'evy stable process stopped at zero is established. Extending that of Lefebvre for Brownian motion, it involves an inverse Beta random variable and the square of a positive stable…
Let ${\mathcal A}$ be the ${\mathcal L}^q-$functional of a stable L\'evy process starting from one and killed when crossing zero. We observe that ${\mathcal A}$ can be represented as the independent quotient of two infinite products of…
The stable fragmentation with index of self-similarity $\alpha \in [-1/2,0)$ is derived by looking at the masses of the subtrees formed by discarding the parts of a $(1 + \alpha)^{-1}$--stable continuum random tree below height $t$, for $t…
In the probability theory limit distributions (or probability measures) are often characterized by some convolution equations (factorization properties) rather than by Fourier transforms (the characteristic functionals). In fact, usually…
