In this paper, we present the testing of four hypotheses on two streams of observations that are driven by L\'evy processes. This is applicable for sequential decision making on the state of two-sensor systems. In one case, each sensor…

Suppose we have a high-frequency sample from the L\'{e}vy process of the form $X_t^\theta=\beta t+\gamma Z_t+U_t$, where $Z$ is a possibly asymmetric locally $\alpha$-stable L\'{e}vy process, and $U$ is a nuisance L\'{e}vy process less…

We consider a complete noncompact smooth metric measure space $(M^n,g,e^{-f} dv)$ and the associated drifting Laplacian. We find sufficient conditions on the geometry of the space so that every nonnegative $f$-subharmonic function with…

We consider the problem of finding a stopping time that minimises the $L^1$-distance to $\theta$, the time at which a L\'evy process attains its ultimate supremum. This problem was studied in [12] for a Brownian motion with drift and a…

Conditions are given, sufficient for the distribution of an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process with L\'evy noise to be absolutely continuous or to possess a smooth density. For the processes with non-degenerate drift coefficient, these conditions…

In this paper we present new theoretical results on optimal estimation of certain random quantities based on high frequency observations of a L\'evy process. More specifically, we investigate the asymptotic theory for the conditional mean…

There are given sufficient conditions under which mixtures of dilations of L\'evy spectral measures, on a Hilbert space, are L\'evy measures again. We introduce some random integrals with respect to infinite dimensional L\'evy processes,…

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 paper we analyze a L\'evy process reflected at a general (possibly random) barrier. For this process we prove Central Limit Theorem for the first passage time. We also give the finite-time first passage probability asymptotics.

We consider infinitely divisible distributions with symmetric L\'evy measure and study the absolute continuity of them with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We prove that if $\eta(r)=\int_{|x|\le r} x^2 \nu(dx)$ where $\nu$ is the L\'evy…

For every non-hyper-FC-central countable amenable group and every $k\geq 2$, we provide a sequence of symmetric, fully supported probability measures such that their convex combination is non-Liouville (that is it admits a non-constant…

We generalize a fundamental theorem on positive matrix semigroups stating that each component is either strictly positive for all times or identically zero ("L\'evy's Theorem"). Our proof of this fact that does not require the matrices to…

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 show that, under the long-tailedness of the densities of normalized L\'evy measures, the densities of infinitely divisible distributions on the half line are subexponential if and only if the densities of their normalized L\'evy measures…
