We consider Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes (OU-processes) associated to hypoelliptic diffusion processes on finite-dimensional Lie groups: let $ \mathcal{L} $ be a hypoelliptic, left-invariant ``sum of the squares''-operator on a Lie group $…
We study a least squares estimator $\hat {\theta}_T$ for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, $dX_t=\theta X_t dt+\sigma dB^H_t$, driven by fractional Brownian motion $B^H$ with Hurst parameter $H\ge \frac12$. We prove the strong consistence of…
In this paper, we study the nonparametric estimation of the density $f_\Delta$ of an increment of a L\'evy process $X$ based on $n$ observations with a sampling rate $\Delta$. The class of L\'evy processes considered is broad, including…
A new shrinkage-based construction is developed for a compressible vector $\boldsymbol{x}\in\mathbb{R}^n$, for cases in which the components of $\xv$ are naturally associated with a tree structure. Important examples are when $\xv$…
In this paper, we extend recent work on the functions that we call Bernstein-gamma to the class of bivariate Bernstein-gamma functions. In the more general bivariate setting, we determine Stirling-type asymptotic bounds which generalise,…
For a bivariate L\'evy process $(\xi_t,\eta_t)_{t\geq 0}$ the generalised Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (GOU) process is defined as V_t:=e^{\xi_t}(z+\int_0^t e^{-\xi_{s-}}d\eta_s), t\ge0, where $z\in\mathbb{R}.$ We define necessary and sufficient…
