The existence of moments of first downward passage times of a spectrally negative L\'evy process is governed by the general dynamics of the L\'evy process, i.e. whether the L\'evy process is drifting to $+\infty$, $-\infty$ or oscillates.…

Violations of the Leggett-Garg inequality (LGI) up to its algebraic bound under non-Hermitian dynamics are well established theoretically. Here, we demonstrate that such extreme violations are intrinsically fragile when realistic…

Let $X_{\alpha}=\{X_{\alpha}(t),t\in T\}$, $\alpha>0$, be an $\alpha$-permanental process with kernel $u(s,t)$. We show that $X^{1/2}_{\alpha}$ is a subgaussian process with respect to the metric $\sigma (s,t)=…

This paper considers the speed of convergence (mixing) of a finite Markov kernel $P$ with respect to the Kullback-Leibler divergence (entropy). Given a Markov kernel one defines either a discrete-time Markov chain (with the $n$-step…

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…

We derive characteristic function identities for conditional distributions of an r-trimmed Levy process given its r largest jumps up to a designated time t. Assuming the underlying Levy process is in the domain of attraction of a stable…

Last passage times arise in a number of areas of applied probability, including risk theory and degradation models. Such times are obviously not stopping times since they depend on the whole path of the underlying process. We consider the…

We establish two results about local times of spectrally positive stable processes. The first is a general approximation result, uniform in space and on compact time intervals, in a model where each jump of the stable process may be marked…

We study continuous-time (variable speed) random walks in random environments on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d\ge2$, where, at time $t$, the walk at $x$ jumps across edge $(x,y)$ at time-dependent rate $a_t(x,y)$. The rates, which we assume stationary…

We characterise, in terms of their transition laws, the class of one-dimensional L\'evy processes whose graph has a continuously differentiable (planar) convex hull. We show that this phenomenon is exhibited by a broad class of infinite…
