We establish a link between the distribution of an exponential functional I and the undershoots of a subordinator, which is given in terms of the associated harmonic potential measure. This allows us to give a necessary and sufficient…

The improper stochastic integral $Z=\int_0^{\infty-}\exp(-X_{s-})dY_s$ is studied, where $\{(X_t, Y_t), t \geqslant 0 \}$ is a L\'evy process on $\mathbb R ^{1+d}$ with $\{X_t \}$ and $\{Y_t \}$ being $\mathbb R$-valued and $\mathbb R…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions for almost sure finiteness of integral functionals of spectrally positive L\'evy processes. Via Lamperti type transforms, these results can be applied to obtain new integral tests on extinction…

Let $\{D(s), s \geq 0 \}$ be a L\'evy subordinator, that is, a non-decreasing process with stationary and independent increments and suppose that $D(0) = 0$. We study the first-hitting time of the process $D$, namely, the process $E(t) =…

The paper is devoted to the integral functionals $\int_0^\infty f(X_t)\,{\mathrm{d}t}$ of Markov processes in $\X$ in the case $d\ge 3$. It is established that such functionals can be presented as the integrals $\int_{\X} f(y) \G(x,…

We establish a new integral equation for the probability density of the exponential functional of a L\'evy process and provide a three-term (Wiener-Hopf type) factorisation of its law. We explain how these results complement the techniques…

We characterize the support of the law of the exponential functional $\int_0^\infty e^{-\xi_{s-}} \, d\eta_s$ of two one-dimensional independent L\'evy processes $\xi$ and $\eta$. Further, we study the range of the mapping $\Phi_\xi$ for a…

In this work we give a complete description to the asymptotic behaviors of exponential functionals of L\'evy processes and divide them into five different types according to their convergence rates. Not only their exact convergence speeds…

We study the distribution and various properties of exponential functionals of hypergeometric Levy processes. We derive an explicit formula for the Mellin transform of the exponential functional and give both convergent and asymptotic…

For a L\'evy process on the real line, we provide complete criteria for the finiteness of exponential moments of the first passage time into the interval $(r,\infty)$, the sojourn time in the interval $(-\infty,r]$, and the last exit time…

The exponential functional of simple, symmetric random walks with negative drift is an infinite polynomial $Y = 1 + \xi_1 + \xi_1 \xi_2 + \xi_1 \xi_2 \xi_3 + ...$ of independent and identically distributed non-negative random variables. It…

Given an increasing process $(A_t)_{t\geq 0}$, we characterize the right-continuous non-decreasing functions $f: \R_+\to \R_+$ that map $A$ to a pure-jump process. As an example of application, we show for instance that functions with…

For two independent L\'{e}vy processes $\xi$ and $\eta$ and an exponentially distributed random variable $\tau$ with parameter $q>0$ that is independent of $\xi$ and $\eta$, the killed exponential functional is given by $V_{q,\xi,\eta} :=…

Let $\xi$ be a (possibly killed) subordinator with Laplace exponent $\phi$ and denote by $I_{\phi}=\int_0^{\infty}\mathrm{e}^{-\xi_s}\,\mathrm{d}s$, the so-called exponential functional. Consider the positive random variable $I_{\psi_1}$…

We study the small-time asymptotics of sample paths of L\'evy processes and L\'evy-type processes. Namely, we investigate under which conditions the limit $$\limsup_{t \to 0} \frac{1}{f(t)} |X_t-X_0|$$ is finite resp.\ infinite with…

A Markov Additive Process is a bi-variate Markov process $(\xi,J)=\big((\xi_t,J_t),t\geq0\big)$ which should be thought of as a multi-type L\'evy process: the second component $J$ is a Markov chain on a finite space $\{1,\ldots,K\}$, and…

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…

In this article, we consider additive functionals $\zeta_t = \int_0^t f(X_s)\mathrm{d} s$ of a c\`adl\`ag Markov process $(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ on $\mathbb{R}$. Under some general conditions on the process $(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ and on the function…

Consider a moving average process $X$ of the form $X(t)=\int_{-\infty}^t x(t-u)dZ_u$, $t\geq 0$, where $Z$ is a (non Gaussian) Hermite process of order $q\geq 2$ and $x:\mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ is sufficiently integrable. This paper…

In this paper we establish functional Erd\H{o}s-Renyi laws for L\'evy processes, i.e. limit theorems for sets of functions on [0,1] associated to their increments. First, we determine precise conditions under which, in a general framework,…
