In this paper we generalize the martingale of Kella and Whitt to the setting of L\'{e}vy-type processes and show that the (local) martingales obtained are in fact square integrable martingales which upon dividing by the time index converge…
Let $V\in C^2(\R^d)$ such that $\mu_V(\d x):= \e^{-V(x)}\,\d x$ is a probability measure, and let $\aa\in (0,2)$. Explicit criteria are presented for the $\aa$-stable-like Dirichlet form $$\E_{\aa,V}(f,f):= \int_{\R^d\times\R^d}…
Multivariate orthogonal polynomials in $D$ real dimensions are considered from the perspective of the Cholesky factorization of a moment matrix. The approach allows for the construction of corresponding multivariate orthogonal polynomials,…
In this paper, we first use PDE techniques and probabilistic methods to identify a kind of quasi-continuous random variables. Then we give a characterization of the $G$-integrable processes and get a kind of quasi-continuous processes by…
A stochastic calculus is given for processes described by stochastic integrals with respect to fractional Brownian motions and Rosenblatt processes somewhat analogous to the stochastic calculus for It\^{o} processes. These processes for…
In this paper we apply Markovian approximation of the fractional Brownian motion (BM), known as the Dobric-Ojeda (DO) process, to the fractional stochastic volatility model where the instantaneous variance is modelled by a lognormal process…

This paper is devoted to the study of the stochastic fixed-point equation X \stackrel{d}{=} \inf_{i \geq 1: T_i > 0} X_i/T_i and the connection with its additive counterpart $X \stackrel{d}{=} \sum_{i\ge 1}T_{i}X_{i}$ associated with the…
In this paper we define a new type of quadratic variation for cylindrical continuous local martingales on an infinite dimensional spaces. It is shown that a large class of cylindrical continuous local martingales has such a quadratic…
This article presents a construction of the concept of stochastic integration in Riemannian manifolds from a purely functional-analytic point of view. We show that there are infinitely many such integrals, and that any two of them are…
We show that a substantial portion of stochastic calculus can be developed along similar lines to ordinary calculus, with derivative-based concepts driving the development. We define a notion of stopping derivative, which is a form of right…
The construction presented in this paper can be briefly described as follows: starting from any "finite-dimensional" Markov transition function p_t, on a measurable state space (E,B), we construct a strong Markov process on a certain…
We consider a discrete time semi-Markov process where the characteristics defining the process depend on a small perturbation parameter. It is assumed that the state space consists of one finite communicating class of states and, in…
In this paper we derive non asymptotic deviation bounds for $$\P_\nu (|\frac 1t \int_0^t V(X_s) ds - \int V d\mu | \geq R)$$ where $X$ is a $\mu$ stationary and ergodic Markov process and $V$ is some $\mu$ integrable function. These bounds…
In this paper, we establish a probabilistic representation as well as some integration by parts formulae for the marginal law at a given time maturity of some stochastic volatility model with unbounded drift. Relying on a perturbation…
Markov-modulated L\'evy processes lead to matrix integral equations of the kind $ A_0 + A_1X+A_2 X^2+A_3(X)=0$ where $A_0$, $A_1$, $A_2$ are given matrix coefficients, while $A_3(X)$ is a nonlinear function, expressed in terms of integrals…
We study the estimation of the value function for continuous-time Markov diffusion processes using a single, discretely observed ergodic trajectory. Our work provides non-asymptotic statistical guarantees for the least-squares…
