For a spectrally negative L\'evy process, scale functions appear in the solution of two-sided exit problems, and in particular in relation with the Laplace transform of the first time it exits a closed interval. In this paper, we consider…
We provide an integral representation for the (implied) copulas of dependent random variables in terms of their moment generating functions. The proof uses ideas from Fourier methods for option pricing. This representation can be used for a…
Based on the concept of self-decomposability, we extend some recent multivariate L\'evy models built using multivariate subordination with the aim of capturing situations in which a sudden event in one market is propagated onto related…
By means of a symbolic method, in this paper we introduce a new family of multivariate polynomials such that multivariate L\'evy processes can be dealt with as they were martingales. In the univariate case, this family of polynomials is…
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…
In this paper, we develop a new mathematical technique which allows us to express the joint distribution of a Markov process and its running maximum (or minimum) through the marginal distribution of the process itself. This technique is an…
In this work, we present a comprehensive theory of stochastic integration with respect to arbitrary cylindrical L\'evy processes in Hilbert spaces. Since cylindrical L\'evy processes do not enjoy a semi-martingale decomposition, our…
We construct intrinsic on-and off-diagonal upper and lower estimates for the transition probability density of a L\'evy process in small time. By intrinsic we mean that such estimates reflect the structure of the characteristic exponent of…
For a spectrally negative L\'evy process with Laplace transform $\psi$, the $q$-scale function is characterized as the function whose Laplace transform is $(\psi(\cdot)-q)^{-1}$. It has applications in fluctuation theory, for example, exit…
We construct in the small-time setting the upper and lower estimates for the transition probability density of a L\'evy process in $\rn$. Our approach relies on the complex analysis technique and the asymptotic analysis of the inverse…
Langevin equations are used to model many processes of physical interest, including low-energy nuclear collisions. In this paper we develop a general method for computing probabilities of very rare events (e.g. small fusion cross-sections)…
For L\'evy processes with exponentially decaying tails of the L\'evy density, we derive integral representations for the joint cpdf $V$ of $(X_T, \bar X_T,\tau_T)$ (the process, its supremum evaluated at $T<+\infty$, and the first time at…
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…
A L\'evy process is said to creep through a curve if, at its first passage time across this curve, the process reaches it with positive probability. We first study this property for bivariate subordinators. Given the graph…
We study whether a multivariate L\'evy-driven moving average process can shadow arbitrarily closely any continuous path, starting from the present value of the process, with positive conditional probability, which we call the conditional…
The main purpose of this chapter is to present some theoretical aspects of parametric estimation of L\'evy processes based on high-frequency sampling, with a focus on infinite activity pure-jump models. Asymptotics for several classes of…
We develop the information geometry of L\'evy processes. Deriving $\alpha$-divergences directly in terms of the L\'evy triplets of the L\'evy processes, we identify Fisher information matrix and $\alpha$-connection on the statistical…
The goal of this paper is to simplify and strengthen the Le Jan-Qian approximation scheme of studying the uniqueness of signature problem to the non-Markov setting. We establish a general framework for a class of multidimensional stochastic…
In this paper we derive tractable formulae for price sensitivities of two-dimensional spread options using Malliavin calculus. In particular, we consider spread options with asset dynamics driven by geometric Brownian motion and stochastic…
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…
