This paper presents several situations leading to the observation of multiple correlated copies of a drifted process, and then non-asymptotic risk bounds are established on nonparametric estimators of the drift function $b_0$ and its…

We study spectral-theoretic properties of non-self-adjoint operators arising in the study of one-dimensional L\'evy processes with completely monotone jumps with a one-sided barrier. With no further assumptions, we provide an integral…

Fast-growing hierarchies are sequences of functions obtained through various processes similar to the ones that yield multiplication from addition, exponentiation from multiplication, etc. We observe that fast-growing hierarchies can be…

We derive theorems which outline explicit mechanisms by which anomalous scaling for the probability density function of the sum of many correlated random variables asymptotically prevails. The results characterize general anomalous scaling…

Let us consider a real L\'evy process X whose transition probabilities are absolutely continuous and have bounded densities. Then the law of the past supremum of X before any deterministic time t is absolutely continuous on (0,\infty). We…

Let $(Y_i,Z_i)_{i\geq 1}$ be a sequence of independent, identically distributed (i.i.d.) random vectors taking values in $\RRR^k\times\RRR^d$, for some integers $k$ and $d$. Given $z\in \RRR^d$, we provide a nonstandard functional limit law…

Given a barrier $0 \leq b_0 \leq b_1 \leq ...$, let $f(n)$ be the number of nondecreasing integer sequences $0 \leq a_0 \leq a_1 \leq ... \leq a_n$ for which $a_j \leq b_j$ for all $0 \leq j \leq n$. Known formul\ae for $f(n)$ include an $n…

Let $n$ and $k$ be nonnegative integers such that $1\le k\le n+1$. The convex cone $\mathcal{F}_+^{k:n}$ of all functions $f$ on an arbitrary interval $I\subseteq\mathbb{R}$ whose derivatives $f^{(j)}$ of orders $j=k-1,\dots,n$ are…

It is well known that increasing functions do not preserve operator order in general; nor do decreasing functions reverse operator order. However, operator monotone increasing or operator monotone decreasing do. In this article, we employ a…

The paper studies the asymptotic behaviour of weighted functionals of long-range dependent data over increasing observation windows. Various important statistics, including sample means, high order moments, occupation measures can be given…

We consider the problem of absolute continuity for the one-dimensional SDE \[X_t=x+\int_0^ta(X_s) ds+Z_t,\] where $Z$ is a real L\'{e}vy process without Brownian part and $a$ a function of class $\mathcal{C}^1$ with bounded derivative.…

As a generalization of scale functions of spectrally negative L\'evy processes, we define scale functions of general standard processes with no positive jumps. For this purpose, we utilize excursion measures. Using our new scale functions…

Let $f\colon \mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ be a continuous and strictly monotone function. In the main result of this paper, we show that, for a fixed $n\geq 2$, the $n$-variable mean $\mathscr{A}_f \colon \mathbb{R}_+^n \to \mathbb{R}_+$…

For a L\'evy process $\xi=(\xi_t)_{t\geq0}$ drifting to $-\infty$, we define the so-called exponential functional as follows \[{\rm{I}}_{\xi}=\int_0^{\infty}e^{\xi_t} dt.\] Under mild conditions on $\xi$, we show that the following…

Following Milner's seminal paper, the representation of functions as processes has received considerable attention. For pure $\lambda$-calculus, the process representations yield (at best) non-extensional $\lambda $-theories (i.e., $\beta$…

Let $X=\{X_n: n\in\mathbb{N}\}$ be a linear process in which the coefficients are of the form $a_i=i^{-1}\ell(i)$ with $\ell$ being a slowly varying function at the infinity and the innovations are independent and identically distributed…

A natural extension of a right-continuous integer-valued random walk is one which can jump to the right by one or two units. First passage times above a given fixed level then admit a tractable Laplace transform (probability generating…

We consider a pure jump process $\{X_t\}_{t\ge 0}$ with values in a finite state space $S= \{1, \ldots, d\}$ for which the jump rates at time instant $t$ depend on the occupation measure $L_t \doteq t^{-1} \int_0^t \delta_{X_s}\,ds$. Such…
