In this paper we show that a path-wise solution to the following integral equation $$ Y_t = \int_0^t f(Y_t) dX_t \qquad Y_0=a \in \R^d $$ exists under the assumption that X_t is a L\'evy process of finite p-variation for some $p \geq1$ and…
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…
We study one-dimensional Levy processes with Levy-Khintchine exponent psi(xi^2), where psi is a complete Bernstein function. These processes are subordinate Brownian motions corresponding to subordinators, whose Levy measure has completely…
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…
We prove smoothing properties of nonlocal transition semigroups associated to a class of stochastic differential equations (SDE) driven by additive pure-jump L\'evy noise. In particular, we assume that the L\'evy process driving the SDE is…
We give recurrence and transience criteria for two cases of time-homogeneous Markov chains on the real line with transition kernel $p(x,dy)=f_x(y-x)dy$, where $f_x(y)$ are probability densities of symmetric distributions and, for large…
We prove the intrinsic ultracontractivity for the semigroup generated by a large class of symmetric Levy processes such that the Levy measure satisfies some conditions in the neighborhood of 0, killed on exiting a bounded and connected…
We experimentally investigate the transmission of light by dense atomic vapor. The light propagating in dense atomic vapor can be modeled as a L\'evy flight random walk. For such system, the step-length distribution can be modeled as…
We show that the vertex-reinforced jump process on the $d$-dimensional lattice with long-range jumps is transient in any dimension $d$ as long as the initial weights do not decay too fast. The main ingredients in the proof are: an analysis…
We consider a new type of lookdown processes where spatial motion of each individual is influenced by an individual noise and a common noise, which could be regarded as an environment. Then a class of probability measure-valued processes on…
We consider a general d-dimensional Levy-type process with killing. Combining the classical Dyson series approach with a novel polynomial expansion of the generator A(t) of the Levy-type process, we derive a family of asymptotic…
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…
The L\'evy walk process for a lower interval of an excursion times distribution ($\alpha<1$) is discussed. The particle rests between the jumps and the waiting time is position-dependent. Two cases are considered: a rising and diminishing…
The master equation for a probability density function (pdf) driven by L\'{e}vy noise, if conditioned to conform with the principle of detailed balance, admits a transformation to a contractive strongly continuous semigroup dynamics. Given…
We study the ergodic properties of a class of multidimensional piecewise Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes with jumps, which contains the limit of the queueing processes arising in multiclass many-server queues with heavy-tailed arrivals and/or…
In this short note we study homogenization of symmetric $d$-dimensional L\'evy processes. Homogenization of one-dimensional pure jump Markov processes has been investigated by Tanaka \emph{et al.} in 1992; their motivation was the work by…
We analyze a specific class of random systems that are driven by a symmetric L\'{e}vy stable noise, where Langevin representation is absent. In view of the L\'{e}vy noise sensitivity to environmental inhomogeneities, the pertinent random…
We derive a criterium for the almost sure finiteness of perpetual integrals of \LL processes for a class of real functions including all continuous functions and for general one-dimensional L\'evy processes that drifts to plus infinity.…
We characterise the convergence of a certain class of discrete time Markov processes toward locally Feller processes in terms of convergence of associated operators. The theory of locally Feller processes is applied to L\'evy-type processes…
We study the distribution and various properties of exponential functionals of hypergeometric Levy processes. We derive an explicit formula for the Mellin transform of the exponential functional and give both convergent and asymptotic…
