We develop a scale-invariant truncated L\'evy (STL) process to describe physical systems characterized by correlated stochastic variables. The STL process exhibits L\'evy stability for the probability density, and hence shows scaling…

There is an abundance of useful fluctuation identities for one-sided L\'evy processes observed up to an independent exponentially distributed time horizon. We show that all the fundamental formulas generalize to time horizons having matrix…

Malliavin calculus is implemented in the context of [M. Hairer, A theory of regularity structures, Invent. Math. 2014]. This involves some constructions of independent interest, notably an extension of the structure which accomodates a…

Let $\mathbb{R}^N_+= [0,\infty)^N$. We here consider a class of random fields $(X_t)_{t\in \mathbb{R}^N_+}$ which are known as Multiparameter L\'evy processes. Related multiparameter semigroups of operators and their generators are…

This paper is devoted to pricing American options using Monte Carlo and the Malliavin calculus. Unlike the majority of articles related to this topic, in this work we will not use localization fonctions to reduce the variance. Our method is…

In this paper we study the domain of stable processes, stable-like processes and more general pseudo- and integro-differential operators which naturally arise both in analysis and as infinitesimal generators of L\'evy- and L\'evy-type…

We generalize the result of block-wise convergence of the Brownian motion on the unitary group $U(nm)$ towards a quantum L\'evy process on the unitary dual group $U\langle n\rangle$ when $m\rightarrow\infty$, obtained by the author in a…

We study the obtainment of closed-form formulas for the distribution of the jumps of a doubly-stochastic Poisson process. The problem is approached in two ways. On the one hand, we translate the problem to the computation of multiple…

In this article, we introduce an infinite-dimensional analogue of the $\alpha$-stable L\'evy motion, defined as a L\'evy process $Z=\{Z(t)\}_{t \geq 0}$ with values in the space $\mathbb{D}$ of c\`adl\`ag functions on $[0,1]$, equipped with…

We develop a Malliavin calculus for nonlinear Hawkes processes in the sense of Carlen and Pardoux. This approach, based on perturbations of the jump times of the process, enables the construction of a local Dirichlet form. As an…

For a general c\`adl\`ag L\'evy process on a separable Banach space $V$ we estimate values of $\inf_{Y\in{\cal A}_X} \mathbb{E}\left\{ \psi\left( \Vert X - Y \Vert_\infty\right) + \mathrm{TV}(Y[0,T]) \right\}$, where ${\cal A}_X$ is the…

We characterize the small-time asymptotic behavior of the exit probability of a L\'evy process out of a two-sided interval and of the law of its overshoot, conditionally on the terminal value of the process. The asymptotic expansions are…
