This article deals with IDT processes, i.e. processes which are infinitely divisible with respect to time. Given an IDT process $(X_{t},\,t\geq0)$, there exists a unique (in law) L\'evy process $(L_{t}; t\geq0)$ which has the same…
Let $\Phi$ be a nuclear space and let $\Phi'_{\beta}$ denote its strong dual. In this work we establish the one-to-one correspondence between infinitely divisible measures on $\Phi'_{\beta}$ and L\'{e}vy processes taking values in…
We consider a particle system with weights and the scaling limits derived from its occupation time. We let the particles perform independent recurrent L\'evy motions and we assume that their initial positions and weights are given by a…
We show the equivalence of three properties for an infinitely divisible distribution: the subexponentiality of the density, the subexponentiality of the density of its L\'evy measure and the tail equivalence between the density and its…
Continuous-time random walks combining diffusive scattering and ballistic propagation on lattices model a class of L\'evy walks. The assumption that transitions in the scattering phase occur with exponentially-distributed waiting times…
In this paper we study the supremum functional $M_t=\sup_{0\le s\le t}X_s$, where $X_t$, $t\ge0$, is a one-dimensional L\'{e}vy process. Under very mild assumptions we provide a simple, uniform estimate of the cumulative distribution…
The L\'evy-stable distribution is the attractor of distributions which hold power laws with infinite variance. This distribution has been used in a variety of research areas, for example in economics it is used to model financial market…
Several long-time limit theorems of one-dimensional L\'evy processes weighted and normalized by functions of its supremum are studied. The long-time limits are taken via the families of exponential times and that of constant times, called…
In this article the almost semi-continuous step-process $\xi (t)$ is considered. The conditional characteristic functions of the jumps of $\xi (t)$ have the form $\mathrm{E} [ e^{i\alpha \xi_k}/\xi_k>0 ]=c(c-i\alpha)^{-1}$. For such…
We obtain general estimates for exponential integrals of the form \[ E_f(y)=\int_{\mathbb{Z}_{p}^{n}}\psi(\sum_{j=1}^r y_j f_j(x))|dx|, \] where the $f_j$ are restricted power series over $\mathbb{Q}_p$, $y_j\in\mathbb{Q}_p$, and $\psi$ a…
In his seminal work from the 1950s, William Feller classified all one-dimensional diffusions on $-\infty\leq a<b\leq \infty$ in terms of their ability to access the boundary (Feller's test for explosions) and to enter the interior from the…
We investigate the upper tail probabilities of the all-time maximum of a stable L\'evy process with a power negative drift. The asymptotic behaviour is shown to be exponential in the spectrally negative case and polynomial otherwise, with…
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…
We analyze confining mechanisms for L\'{e}vy flights. When they evolve in suitable external potentials their variance may exist and show signatures of a superdiffusive transport. Two classes of stochastic jump - type processes are…
We consider a defaultable asset whose risk-neutral pricing dynamics are described by an exponential Levy-type martingale subject to default. This class of models allows for local volatility, local default intensity, and a locally dependent…
Let $X=\{X_{t},t\in R_{+}\}$ be a symmetric L\'{e}vy process with local time $\{L^{x}_{t} ; (x,t)\in R^{1}\times R^{1}_{+}\}$. When the L\'{e}vy exponent $\psi(\la)$ is regularly varying at zero with index $1<\beta\leq 2$, and satisfies…
It is known that the so-called Bercovici-Pata bijection can be explained in terms of certain Hermitian random matrix ensembles $(M_{d})_{d\geq1}$ whose asymptotic spectral distributions are free infinitely divisible. We investigate…
In this paper we introduce a ten-parameter family of L\'{e}vy processes for which we obtain Wiener-Hopf factors and distribution of the supremum process in semi-explicit form. This family allows an arbitrary behavior of small jumps and…
In this article, we study the asymptotic behaviour of L\'evy processes with no positive jumps conditioned to stay positive. We establish integral tests for the lower envelope at 0 and at $+\infty$ and an analogue of Khintchin's law of the…
The main purpose of this chapter is to present some theoretical aspects of parametric estimation of L\'evy processes based on high-frequency sampling, with a focus on infinite activity pure-jump models. Asymptotics for several classes of…
