Given a data set of numerical values which are sampled from some unknown probability distribution, we will show how to check if the data set exhibits the Markov property and we will show how to use the Markov property to predict future…
Consider a one dimensional critical branching L\'{e}vy process $((Z_t)_{t\geq 0}, \mathbb {P}_x)$. Assume that the offspring distribution either has finite second moment or belongs to the domain of attraction to some $\alpha$-stable…
Kuznetsov et al. (2011) and Kuznetsov and Pardo (2013) introduced the family of Hypergeometric L\'evy processes. They appear naturally in the study of fluctuations of stable processes when one analyses stable processes through the theory of…
We provide a systematic study of the notion of duality of Markov processes with respect to a function. We discuss the relation of this notion with duality with respect to a measure as studied in Markov process theory and potential theory…
We construct intrinsic on-and off-diagonal upper and lower estimates for the transition probability density of a L\'evy process in small time. By intrinsic we mean that such estimates reflect the structure of the characteristic exponent of…
In this paper, we will prove that the local time of a L\'evy process is of finite $p$-variation in the space variable in the classical sense, a.s. for any $p>2$, $t\geq 0$, if the L\'evy measure satisfies $\int_{R\setminus…
In this paper, we study a notion of local stationarity for discrete time Markov chains which is useful for applications in statistics. In the spirit of some locally stationary processes introduced in the literature, we consider triangular…
The Airy processes describe spatial fluctuations in wide range of growth models, where each particular Airy process arising in each case depends on the geometry of the initial profile. We show how the coupling method, developed in the…
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…
Markov-modulated L\'evy processes with two different regimes of restarting are studied. These regimes correspond to the completely renewed process and to the process of Markov modulation, accompanied by jumps. We give explicit expressions…
We consider the down/up crossing property of weighted Markov branching processes. The joint probability distribution of multi crossing numbers of such processes are obtained. In particular, for Markov branching processes, the probability…
A Markovian bridge is a probability measure taken from a disintegration of the law of an initial part of the path of a Markov process given its terminal value. As such, Markovian bridges admit a natural parameterization in terms of the…
We provide a sufficient condition for the continuity of real valued permanental processes. When applied to the subclass of permanental processes which consists of squares of Gaussian processes, we obtain the sufficient condition for…
In this research paper, the relationship between finite / countable state space stochastic processes and point processes is explored. Utilizing the known relationship between Poisson processes and continuous time Markov chains, finite /…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of efficiency (consistency) and examine some asymptotic properties of Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. We apply these results to the data augmentation (DA) procedure for independent and identically…
It is well-known that 0 is the absorbing state for a branching system. Each particle in the system lives a random long time and gives a random number of new particles at its death time. It stops when the system has no particle. This paper…
We use coupling to study the time taken until the distribution of a statistic on a Markov chain is close to its stationary distribution. Coupling is a common technique used to obtain upper bounds on mixing times of Markov chains, and we…
In this paper we develop a general framework for constructing and analysing coupled Markov chain Monte Carlo samplers, allowing for both (possibly degenerate) diffusion and piecewise deterministic Markov processes. For many performance…
This article study the class of distributions obtained by subordinating L\'evy processes and L\'evy bases. To do this we derive properties of a suitable mapping obtained via L\'evy mixing. We show that our results can be used to solve the…
We develop a scale-invariant truncated L\'evy (STL) process to describe physical systems characterized by correlated stochastic variables. The STL process exhibits L\'evy stability for the probability density, and hence shows scaling…
