One-dimensional stochastic differential equations with additive L\'evy noise are considered. Conditions for existence and uniqueness of a strong solution are obtained. In particular, if the noise is a L\'evy symmetric stable process with…

Let $X_1,...,X_N$ denote $N$ independent $d$-dimensional L\'evy processes, and consider the $N$-parameter random field \[\X(\bm{t}):= X_1(t_1)+...+X_N(t_N).\] First we demonstrate that for all nonrandom Borel sets $F\subseteq\R^d$, the…

The theory of monotonicity and duality is developed for general one-dimensional Feller processes. Moreover it is shown that local monotonicity conditions (conditions on the L\'evy kernel) are sufficient to prove the well-posedness of the…

Under certain mild conditions, limit theorems for additive functionals of some $d$-dimensional self-similar Gaussian processes are obtained. These limit theorems work for general Gaussian processes including fractional Brownian motions,…

We prove the existence of an extremal function in the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev inequality for the energy associated to an stable operator. To this aim we obtain a concentration-compactness principle for stable processes in $\mathbb{R}^N$.

Let (X_t, t >=0) be a Levy process started at 0, with Levy measure nu, and T_x the first hitting time of level x>0: T_x := inf{t>=0; X_t>x}. Let F(theta,mu,rho,.) be the joint Laplace transform of (T_x, K_x, L_x): F(theta,mu,rho,x) := E…

The concept of a L\'evy subordinator is generalized to a family of non-decreasing stochastic processes, which are parameterized in terms of two Bernstein functions. Whereas the independent increments property is only maintained in the…

Dilative stability generalizes the property of selfsimilarity for infinitely divisible stochastic processes by introducing an additional scaling in the convolution exponent. Inspired by results of Igl\'oi, we will show how dilatively stable…

Using marked Dirichlet processes we characterise the law of the convex minorant of the meander for a certain class of L\'evy processes, which includes subordinated stable and symmetric L\'evy processes. We apply this characterisaiton to…

Let $\{D(s), s \geq 0 \}$ be a L\'evy subordinator, that is, a non-decreasing process with stationary and independent increments and suppose that $D(0) = 0$. We study the first-hitting time of the process $D$, namely, the process $E(t) =…

We obtain general lower estimates of transition densities of jump L\'evy processes. We use them for processes with L\'evy measures having bounded support, processes with exponentially decaying L\'evy measures for large times and for…

We completely describe the size and large intersection properties of the Holder singularity sets of Levy processes. We also study the set of times at which a given function cannot be a modulus of continuity of a Levy process. The Holder…

Motivated by recent studies of record statistics in relation to strongly correlated time series, we consider explicitly the drawdown time of a Levy process, which is defined as the time since it last achieved its running maximum when…

Under proper scaling and distributional assumptions, we prove the convergence in the Skorokhod space endowed with the M_1-topology of a sequence of stochastic integrals of a deterministic function driven by a time-changed symmetric…

In the present paper, a novel vector field decomposition based approach for constructing Lyapunov functions is proposed. For a given dynamical system, if the defining vector field admits a decomposition into two mutually orthogonal vector…

A multiplicative identity in law connecting the hitting times of completely asymmetric $\alpha-$stable L\'evy processes in duality is established. In the spectrally positive case, this identity allows with an elementary argument to compute…

In this paper we prove the uniform boundary Harnack principle in general open sets for harmonic functions with respect to a large class of rotationally symmetric purely discontinuous L\'evy processes.

We show that a conditional characteristic function of generalized L\'evy stochastic areas can be viewed as a product a selfdecomposable distribution (i.e., L\'evy class L distribution) and its background driving characteristic function.…

An obvious way to simulate a L\'evy process $X$ is to sample its increments over time $1/n$, thus constructing an approximating random walk $X^{(n)}$. This paper considers the error of such approximation after the two-sided reflection map…

This paper provides a framework for investigations in fluctuation theory for L\'evy processes with matrix-exponential jumps. We present a matrix form of the components of the infinitely divisible factorization. Using this representation we…
