Limit theorems for the normalized laws with respect to two kinds of weight functionals are studied for any symmetric stable L\'evy process of index $ 1 < \alpha \le 2 $. The first kind is a function of the local time at the origin, and the…
We consider a one-dimensional diffusion in a stable L\'evy environment. We show that the normalized local time process refocused at the bottom of the standard valley with height $\log t$, $(L_X(t,\mathfrak m_{\log t}+x)/t,x\in \R)$,…
We derive explicitly the coupling property for the transition semigroup of a L\'{e}vy process and gradient estimates for the associated semigroup of transition operators. This is based on the asymptotic behaviour of the symbol or the…
Let $\{L(t),t\geq 0\}$ be a L\'{e}vy process with representative random variable $L(1)$ defined by the infinitely divisible logarithmic series distribution. We study here the transition probability and L\'{e}vy measure of this process. We…
For a spectrally negative L\'evy process $X$, consider $g_t$, the last time $X$ is below the level zero before time $t\geq 0$. We use a perturbation method for L\'evy processes to derive an It\^o formula for the three-dimensional process…
Kuznetsov et al. (2011) and Kuznetsov and Pardo (2013) introduced the family of Hypergeometric L\'evy processes. They appear naturally in the study of fluctuations of stable processes when one analyses stable processes through the theory of…
A branching L\'evy process can be seen as the continuous-time version of a branching random walk. It describes a particle system on the real line in which particles move and reproduce independently in a Poissonian manner. Just as for L\'evy…
We consider a queuing model with the workload evolving between consecutive i.i.d.\ exponential timers $\{e_q^{(i)}\}_{i=1,2,...}$ according to a spectrally positive L\'evy process $Y_i(t)$ that is reflected at zero, and where the…
We investigate some asymptotic properties of general Markov processes conditioned not to be absorbed by moving boundaries. We first give general criteria involving an exponential convergence towards the Q-process, that is the law of the…
We propose non-asymptotic controls of the cumulative distribution function $P(|X_{t}|\ge \varepsilon)$, for any $t>0$, $\varepsilon>0$ and any L\'evy process $X$ such that its L\'evy density is bounded from above by the density of an…
We present a time change construction of affine processes with state-space $\mathbb{R}_+^m\times \mathbb{R}^n$. These processes were systematically studied in (Duffie, Filipovi\'c and Schachermayer, 2003) since they contain interesting…
We establish two results about local times of spectrally positive stable processes. The first is a general approximation result, uniform in space and on compact time intervals, in a model where each jump of the stable process may be marked…
In this paper, we study the law of the local time processes $(L_T^x(X),x\in \mathbb{R})$ associated to a spectrally negative L\'evy process $X$, in the cases $T=\tau_a^+$, the first passage time of $X$ above $a>0$ and $T=\tau(c)$, the first…
We present a satisfactory definition of the important class of L\'evy processes indexed by a general collection of sets. We use a new definition for increment stationarity of set-indexed processes to obtain different characterizations of…
A step reinforced random walk is a discrete time process with memory such that at each time step, with fixed probability $p \in (0,1)$, it repeats a previously performed step chosen uniformly at random while with complementary probability…
Recent fluctuation identities for $\alpha$-stable L\'evy processes have decomposed paths using generalised spherical polar coordinates revealing an underlying Markov Additive Process (MAP) for which a more advanced form of excursion theory…
Stable distributions are a celebrated class of probability laws used in various fields. The $\alpha$-stable process, and its exponentially tempered counterpart, the Classical Tempered Stable (CTS) process, are also prominent examples of…
$H$-theorem states that the entropy production is nonnegative and, therefore, the entropy of a closed system should monotonically change in time. In information processing, the entropy production is positive for random transformation of…
Generalizing Kyprianou--Loeffen's refracted L\'evy processes, we define a new refracted L\'evy process which is a Markov process whose positive and negative motions are L\'evy processes different from each other. To construct it we utilize…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of the probability that a stochastic process $(Z_t)_{t \geq 0}$ does not exceed a constant barrier up to time $T$ (the so called survival probability) when Z is the composition of two independent processes…
