We consider a general d-dimensional Levy-type process with killing. Combining the classical Dyson series approach with a novel polynomial expansion of the generator A(t) of the Levy-type process, we derive a family of asymptotic…

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…

We consider exit problems for general L\'evy processes, where the first passage over a threshold is detected either immediately or at an epoch of an independent homogeneous Poisson process. It is shown that the two corresponding one-sided…

In this paper, we study the existence of the density associated to the exponential functional of the L\'evy process $\xi$, \[ I_{\ee_q}:=\int_0^{\ee_q} e^{\xi_s} \, \mathrm{d}s, \] where $\ee_q$ is an independent exponential r.v. with…

Estimation methods for the L\'{e}vy density of a L\'{e}vy process are developed under mild qualitative assumptions. A classical model selection approach made up of two steps is studied. The first step consists in the selection of a good…

There exist only a few known examples of subordinators for which the transition probability density can be computed explicitly along side an expression for its L\'evy measure and Laplace exponent. Such examples are useful in several areas…
