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…
We suppose that a L\'evy process is observed at discrete time points. A rather general construction of minimum-distance estimators is shown to give consistent estimators of the L\'evy-Khinchine characteristics as the number of observations…
We prove that the definitions of the Kato class by the semigroup and by the resolvent of the L\'{e}vy process on $\mathbb{R}^d$ coincide if and only if 0 is not regular for {0}. If 0 is regular for {0} then we describe both classes in…
Iksanov and Pilipenko (2023) defined a skew stable L\'{e}vy process as a scaling limit of a sequence of perturbed at $0$ symmetric stable L\'{e}vy processes (continuous-time processes). Here, we provide a simpler construction of the skew…
We consider a L\'evy process reflected at the origin with additional i.i.d. collapses that occur at Poisson epochs, where a collapse is a jump downward to a state which is a random fraction of the state just before the jump. We first study…
This paper is concerned with asymptotic behavior (at zero and at infinity) of the favorite points of L\'evy processes. By exploring Molchan's idea for deriving lower tail probabilities of Gaussian processes with stationary increments, we…
We consider a spectrally negative branching L{\'e}vy process where the particles undergo dyadic branching and are killed when entering the negative half-plane. The purpose of this short note is to give conditions under which this process…
We derive several sets of sufficient conditions for applicability of the new efficient numerical realization of the inverse $Z$-transform. For large $n$, the complexity of the new scheme is dozens of times smaller than the complexity of the…
For a spectrally one-sided L\'{e}vy process, we extend various two-sided exit identities to the situation when the process is only observed at arrival epochs of an independent Poisson process. In addition, we consider exit problems of this…
Under mild assumptions, we establish a Liouville theorem for the "Laplace" equation $Au=0$ associated with the infinitesimal generator $A$ of a L\'evy process: If $u$ is a weak solution to $Au=0$ which is at most of (suitable) polynomial…
In [16], under mild conditions, a Wiener-Hopf type factorization is derived for the exponential functional of proper L\'evy processes. In this paper, we extend this factorization by relaxing a finite moment assumption as well as by…
In this paper, we introduce branching processes in a L\'evy random environment. In order to define this class of processes, we study a particular class of non-negative stochastic differential equations driven by Brownian motions and Poisson…
The purpose of this note is to describe, in terms of a power series, the distribution function of the exponential functional, taken at some independent exponential time, of a spectrally negative L\'evy process \xi with unbounded variation.…
We ask for necessary and sufficient conditions for almost sure finiteness of the perpetual integrals of a Levy process. Zero-one laws are already known for Brownian motion with drift and spectrally one-sided Levy processes. Under the…
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…
We consider a class of L\'evy-type processes on which spectral analysis technics can be made to produce optimal results, in particular for the decay rate of their survival probability and for the spectral gap of their ground state…
We characterise, in terms of their transition laws, the class of one-dimensional L\'evy processes whose graph has a continuously differentiable (planar) convex hull. We show that this phenomenon is exhibited by a broad class of infinite…
For any 0 < alpha <2, a truncated symmetric alpha-stable process is a symmetric Levy process in R^d with a Levy density given by c|x|^{-d-alpha} 1_{|x|< 1} for some constant c. In this paper we study the potential theory of truncated…
The main goal of the work is to study the stochastic averaging principle for two time-scales stochastic evolution equations driven by L\'evy process. The solution of reduced equation with modified coefficient is derived to approximate the…
We study the small-time asymptotics of sample paths of L\'evy processes and L\'evy-type processes. Namely, we investigate under which conditions the limit $$\limsup_{t \to 0} \frac{1}{f(t)} |X_t-X_0|$$ is finite resp.\ infinite with…
