We prove a boundary Harnack inequality for jump-type Markov processes on metric measure state spaces, under comparability estimates of the jump kernel and Urysohn-type property of the domain of the generator of the process. The result holds…

Martin boundaries and integral representations of positive functions which are harmonic in a bounded domain $D$ with respect to Brownian motion are well understood. Unlike the Brownian case, there are two different kinds of harmonicity with…

In this paper, we study purely discontinuous symmetric Markov processes on closed subsets of ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 1$, with jump kernels of the form $J(x,y)=|x-y|^{-d-\alpha}{\mathcal B}(x,y)$, $\alpha\in (0,2)$, where the function…

In this paper, we consider a symmetric pure jump Markov process $X$ on a metric measure space with volume doubling conditions. Our focus is on estimating the transition density $p(t,x,y)$ of $X$ and studying its stability when the jumping…

We consider a recurrent Markov process which is an It\^o semi-martingale. The L\'evy kernel describes the law of its jumps. Based on observations X(0),X({\Delta}),...,X(n{\Delta}), we construct an estimator for the L\'evy kernel's density.…

The Martin compactification is investigated for a d-dimensional random walk which is killed when at least one of it's coordinates becomes zero or negative. The limits of the Martin kernel are represented in terms of the harmonic functions…

In this paper, we study the transition densities of pure-jump symmetric Markov processes in $ {{\mathbb R}}^d$, whose jumping kernels are comparable to radially symmetric functions with mixed polynomial growths. Under some mild assumptions…

Let $Z=(Z^{1}, \ldots, Z^{d})$ be the $d$-dimensional L\'evy processes where $Z^{i}$'s are independent $1$-dimensional L\'evy processes with jump kernel $J^{\phi, 1}(u,w) =|u-w|^{-1}\phi(|u-w|)^{-1}$ for $u, w\in \mathbb R$. Here $\phi$ is…

In this paper, we study two types of purely discontinuous symmetric Markov processes $X$ in bounded smooth subsets of $\mathbb R^d$: conservative processes and processes killed either upon approaching the boundary of the set or by a killing…

Up to now, the nonparametric analysis of multidimensional continuous-time Markov processes has focussed strongly on specific model choices, mostly related to symmetry of the semigroup. While this approach allows to study the performance of…

In the first part of this article, we prove two-sided estimates of hitting probabilities of balls, the potential kernel and the Green function for a ball for general isotropic unimodal L\'evy processes. Our bounds are sharp under the…

We consider a class of pure jump Markov processes in $\rr^d$ whose jump kernels are comparable to those of symmetric stable processes. We prove a support theorem, a lower bound on the occupation times of sets, and show that we can…

We suggest a method for constructing positive harmonic functions for a wide class of transition kernels on $Z^+$. We also find natural conditions under which these functions have positive finite limits at infinity. Further, we apply our…

In this paper we study the Martin boundary of open sets with respect to a large class of purely discontinuous symmetric L\'evy processes in ${\mathbb R}^d$. We show that, if $D\subset {\mathbb R}^d$ is an open set which is $\kappa$-fat at a…

We study small time bounds for transition densities of convolution semigroups corresponding to pure jump L\'evy processes in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, $d \geq 1$, including those with jumping kernels exponentially and subexponentially localized at…

We study a class of Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes with state space Rd x E where E is a finite set. The continuous component evolves according to a smooth vector field that is switched at the jump times of the discrete coordinate.…

Consider an irreducible Markov chain which satisfies a ratio limit theorem, and let $\rho$ be the spectral radius of the chain. We investigate the relation of the the $\rho\,$-Martin boundary with the boundary induced by the…

We prove that the martingale problem is well posed for pure-jump L\'evy-type operators of the form $$ (\mathcal Lf)(x) = \int_{\mathbb R^d \setminus \{0\}} \left(f(x+h)-f(x) - (\nabla f(x) \cdot h)1_{\|h\| < 1}\right)K(x,h) dh, $$ where…
