Markov processes are used in a wide range of disciplines, including finance. The transition densities of these processes are often unknown. However, the conditional characteristic functions are more likely to be available, especially for…

In this article, relying on Foster-Lyapunov drift conditions, we establish subexponential upper and lower bounds on the rate of convergence in the $\mathrm{L}^p$-Wasserstein distance for a class of irreducible and aperiodic Markov…

In this paper, we investigate a nonparametric approach to provide a recursive estimator of the transition density of a non-stationary piecewise-deterministic Markov process, from only one observation of the path within a long time. In this…

Consider a one-sided Markov additive process with an upper and a lower barrier, where each can be either reflecting or terminating. For both defective and non-defective processes and all possible scenarios we identify the corresponding…

A distributional equation as a criterion for invariant measures of Markov processes associated to L\'evy-type operators is established. This is obtained via a characterization of infinitesimally invariant measures of the associated…

We present an existence result for L\'evy-type processes which requires only weak regularity assumptions on the symbol $q(x,\xi)$ with respect to the space variable $x$. Applications range from existence and uniqueness results for…

This article deals with adaptive nonparametric estimation for L\'evy processes observed at low frequency. For general linear functionals of the L\'evy measure, we construct kernel estimators, provide upper risk bounds and derive rates of…

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…

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…

A fundamental result of Biane (1998) states that a process with freely independent increments has the Markov property, but that there are two kinds of free Levy processes: the first kind has stationary increments, while the second kind has…

Estimation methods for the L\'{e}vy density of a L\'{e}vy process are developed under mild qualitative assumptions. A classical model selection approach made up of two steps is studied. The first step consists in the selection of a good…
