We study a combination of the refracted and reflected L\'evy processes. Given a spectrally negative L\'evy process and two boundaries, it is reflected at the lower boundary while, whenever it is above the upper boundary, a linear drift at a…
This text surveys properties and applications of the exponential functional $\int_0^t\exp(-\xi_s)ds$ of real-valued L\'evy processes $\xi=(\xi_t,t\geq0)$.
The study of non-stationary processes whose local form has controlled properties is a fruitful and important area of research, both in theory and applications. We present here a construction of multifractional multistable processes, based…
A refracted L\'evy process is a L\'evy process whose dynamics change by subtracting off a fixed linear drift (of suitable size) whenever the aggregate process is above a pre-specified level. More precisely, whenever it exists, a refracted…
We determine the asymptotic behavior of the realized power variations, or more generally of sums of a given test function evaluated at the successive increments of a L\'{e}vy process. One can completely elucidate the first order behavior…
This paper constructs a class of martingale transforms based on L\'evy processes on Lie groups. From these, a natural class of bounded linear operators on the $L^p$-spaces of the group (with respect to Haar measure) for $1<p<\infty$, are…
We consider a class of stochastic dynamical systems, called piecewise deterministic Markov processes, with states $(x, \s)\in \O\times \G$, $\O$ being a region in $\bbR^d$ or the $d$--dimensional torus, $\G$ being a finite set. The…
In this paper we consider the existence of weakly c\`adl\`ag versions of a solution to a linear equation in a Hilbert space $H$, driven by a Levy process taking values in a Hilbert space $U$. In particular we are interested in diagonal type…
Given a sample from a discretely observed L\'evy process $X=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ of the finite jump activity, the problem of nonparametric estimation of the L\'evy density $\rho$ corresponding to the process $X$ is studied. An estimator of…
Long-time limit of one-dimensional L\'{e}vy processes weighted and normalized with respect to the exponential functional of two-point local times are studied. The limit processes may vary according to the choice of random clocks.
We study the small-time asymptotics of sample paths of L\'evy processes and L\'evy-type processes. Namely, we investigate under which conditions the limit $$\limsup_{t \to 0} \frac{1}{f(t)} |X_t-X_0|$$ is finite resp.\ infinite with…
Motivated by classical considerations from risk theory, we investigate boundary crossing problems for refracted L\'evy processes. The latter is a L\'evy process whose dynamics change by subtracting off a fixed linear drift (of suitable…
Axially symmetric processes on spheres, for which the second-order dependency structure may substantially vary with shifts in latitude, are a prominent alternative to model the spatial uncertainty of natural variables located over large…
We study the properties of the exponential functional $\int\_0^{+ \infty} e^{- X^{\uparrow} (t)}dt$ where $X^{\uparrow}$ is a spectrally one-sided L{\'e}vy process conditioned to stay positive. In particular, we study finiteness,…
Motivated from option and derivative pricing, this note develops Edgeworth expansions both in the Kolmogorov and Wasserstein metric for many different types of discrete time volatility models and their possible transformations. This…
We consider a new class of determinantal point processes in the complex plane coming from the ground state of free fermions associated with Berezin--Toeplitz operators. These processes generalize the Ginibre ensemble from random matrix…
We present a satisfactory definition of the important class of L\'evy processes indexed by a general collection of sets. We use a new definition for increment stationarity of set-indexed processes to obtain different characterizations of…
We give a construction of ``quantum Maslov characteristic classes'', generalizing to higher dimensional cycles the Hu-Lalonde-Seidel morphism. We also state a conjecture extending this to an $A _{\infty}$ functor from the exact path…
These lectures notes aim at introducing L\'{e}vy processes in an informal and intuitive way, accessible to non-specialists in the field. In the first part, we focus on the theory of L\'{e}vy processes. We analyze a `toy' example of a…
We study the regularity of smooth functions whose derivatives are dominated by sequences of the form $M_p^{\tau,\s}=p^{\tau p^{\s}}$, $\tau>0$, $\s\geq1$. We show that such functions can be characterized through the decay properties of…
