For one-dimensional symmetric L\'{e}vy processes, which hit every point with positive probability, we give sharp bounds for the tail function of the first hitting time of B which is either a single point or an interval. The estimates are…

We consider an n-dimensional Brownian Motion trapped inside a bounded convex set by normally-reflecting boundaries. It is well-known that this process is uniformly ergodic. However, the rates of this ergodicity are not well-understood,…

A set $A$ in a finite dimensional Euclidean space is \emph{monovex} if for every two points $x,y \in A$ there is a continuous path within the set that connects $x$ and $y$ and is monotone (nonincreasing or nondecreasing) in each coordinate.…

In this paper we study the problem of statistical inference for a continuous-time moving average L\'evy process of the form $$Z_{t} = \int_{\mathbb{R}}\mathcal{K}(t-s)\, dL_{s},\quad t\in\mathbb{R}$$ with a deterministic kernel (\K\) and a…

Conditioning stable L\'evy processes on zero probability events recently became a tractable subject since several explicit formulas emerged from a deep analysis using the Lamperti transformations for self-similar Markov processes. In this…

We study translation invariant stochastic processes on $\mathbb{R}^d$ or $\mathbb{Z}^d$ whose diffraction spectrum or structure function $S(k)$, i.e. the Fourier transform of the truncated total pair correlation function, vanishes on an…

In this paper, we study the cut-off phenomenon under the total variation distance of $d$-dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes which are driven by L\'evy processes. That is to say, under the total variation distance, there is an abrupt…

In this paper, we study the weak convergence of the extremes of supercritical branching L\'evy processes $\{\mathbb{X}_t, t \ge0\}$ whose spatial motions are L\'evy processes with regularly varying tails. The result is drastically different…

In this paper, we prove that the distance function of an open connected set in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with a $C^{2}$ boundary is superharmonic in the distribution sense if and only if the boundary is {\em weakly mean convex}. We then prove that…

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…

In this paper, we study the compressibility of random processes and fields, called generalized L\'evy processes, that are solutions of stochastic differential equations driven by $d$-dimensional periodic L\'evy white noises. Our results are…

Given $n$ equidistant realisations of a L\'evy process $(L_t,\,t\ge 0)$, a natural estimator $\hat N_n$ for the distribution function $N$ of the L\'evy measure is constructed. Under a polynomial decay restriction on the characteristic…

The contact process is a particular case of birth-and-death processes on infinite particle configurations. We consider the contact models on locally compact separable metric spaces. We prove the existence of a one-parameter set of invariant…

Markovian open quantum systems display complicated relaxation dynamics. The spectral gap of the Liouvillian characterizes the asymptotic decay rate towards the steady state, but it does not necessarily give a correct estimate of the…

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 consider a general set $\mathcal{X}$ of adapted nonnegative stochastic processes in infinite continuous time. $\mathcal{X}$ is assumed to satisfy mild convexity conditions, but in contrast to earlier papers need not contain a strictly…

We provide a L\'evy-It\^o decomposition of sample paths of L\'evy processes with values in complete locally convex Suslin spaces. This class of state spaces contains the well investigated examples of separable Banach spaces, as well as…

We show that on groups generated by bounded activity automata, every symmetric, finitely supported probability measure has the Liouville property. More generally we show this for every group of automorphisms of bounded type of a rooted…

We prove explicit and sharp two-sided estimates for the transition density of the Langevin process with quadratic potential, killed outside of the position interval (0,1). The long-time asymptotics of this transition density are also…

This paper establishes the precise small-time asymptotic behavior of the spectral heat content for isotropic L\'evy processes on bounded $C^{1,1}$ open sets of $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ with $d\ge 2$, where the underlying characteristic exponents…
