We study the probability distribution function (pdf) of the position of a L\'evy flight of index 0<\alpha<2 in presence of an absorbing wall at the origin. The solution of the associated fractional Fokker-Planck equation can be constructed…
In this paper we perform a statistical analysis of the high-frequency returns of the IBEX35 Madrid stock exchange index. We find that its probability distribution seems to be stable over different time scales, a stylized fact observed in…
We consider a process $Z$ on the real line composed from a L\'evy process and its exponentially tilted version killed with arbitrary rates and give an expression for the joint law of $Z$ seen from its supremum, the supremum $\overline Z$…
We analyze a class of linear partial differential equations that arise as deterministic descriptions of the scaling limits of L\'evy walks, in which transport is driven by a convex combination of fractional material derivatives and a source…
We develop a finite-horizon model in which liquid-asset returns exhibit Levy-stable scaling on a data-driven window [tau_UV, tau_IR] and aggregate into a finite-variance regime outside. The window and the tail index alpha are identified…
The non-Markovian continuous-time random walk model, featuring fat-tailed waiting times and narrow distributed displacements with a non-zero mean, is a well studied model for anomalous diffusion. Using an analytical approach, we recently…
What is the analogue of L\'evy processes for random surfaces? Motivated by scaling limits of random planar maps in random geometry, we introduce and study L\'evy looptrees and L\'evy maps. They are defined using excursions of general L\'evy…
The L\'evy constant of an irrational real number is defined by the exponential growth rate of the sequence of denominators of the principal convergents in its continued fraction expansion. Any quadratic irrational has an ultimately periodic…
We analyze entropy solutions for a class of Levy mixed hyperbolicparabolic equations containing a non-local (or fractional) diffusion operator originating from a pure jump Levy process. For these solutions we establish uniqueness (L1…
We establish distributional limit theorems for the shape statistics of a concave majorant (i.e. the fluctuations of its length, its supremum, the time it is attained and its value at $T$) of any L\'evy process on $[0,T]$ as $T\to\infty$.…
In this work, we prove the convergence of residual distribution schemes to dissipative weak solutions of the Euler equations. We need to guarantee that the residual distribution schemes are fulfilling the underlying structure preserving…
In this paper, the uniform stability of the inverse spectral problem is proved for the matrix Sturm-Liouville operator on a finite interval. Namely, we describe the sets of spectral data, on which the inverse spectral mapping is bounded…
In the present paper, we discuss contra-arguments concerning the use of Pareto-Lev\'y distributions for modeling in Finance. It appears that such probability laws do not provide sufficient number of outliers observed in real data.…
L\'evy walks (LWs) are spatiotemporally coupled random-walk processes describing superdiffusive heat conduction in solids, propagation of light in disordered optical materials, motion of molecular motors in living cells, or motion of…
We study stationary solutions to the continuity equation for weakly compressible flows. These describe non-equilibrium steady states of weakly dissipative dynamical systems. Compressibility is a singular perturbation that changes the steady…

L\'evy matrices are symmetric random matrices whose entry distributions lie in the domain of attraction of an $\alpha$-stable law. For $\alpha < 1$, predictions from the physics literature suggest that high-dimensional L\'{e}vy matrices…
