We give an interpretation of the bilateral exit problem for L\'{e}vy processes via the study of an elementary Markov chain. We exhibit a strong connection between this problem and Krein's theory on strings. For instance, for symmetric…

We study Girsanov's theorem in the context of symmetric Markov processes, extending earlier work of Fukushima-Takeda and Fitzsimmons on Girsanov transformations of ``gradient type.'' We investigate the most general Girsanov transformation…

The theory of monotonicity and duality is developed for general one-dimensional Feller processes. Moreover it is shown that local monotonicity conditions (conditions on the L\'evy kernel) are sufficient to prove the well-posedness of the…

Markov processes are used in a wide range of disciplines, including finance. The transition densities of these processes are often unknown. However, the conditional characteristic functions are more likely to be available, especially for…

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…

Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) have been used to formulate many decision-making problems in science and engineering. The objective is to synthesize the best decision (action selection) policies to maximize expected rewards (or minimize…

In this paper we show that a non-local operator of certain type extends to the generator of a strong Markov process, admitting the transition probability density. For this transition probability density we construct the intrinsic upper and…

Let $K$ be an algebraic number field. We construct an additive Markov process $X_t^{K_\mathbb A}$ on the ring of adeles $K_\mathbb A,$ whose coordinates $X_t^{(v)}$ are independent and use this process to give a probabilistic interpretation…

In this paper, we shall introduce the Tanaka formula from viewpoint of the Doob-Meyer decomposition. For symmetric L\'evy processes, if the local time exists, Salminen and Yor (2007) obtained the Tanaka formula by using the potential…

Upper estimates of densities of convolution semigroups of probability measures are given under explicit assumptions on the corresponding L\'evy measure and the L\'evy--Khinchin exponent.

We consider the convergence of a continuous-time Markov chain approximation X^h, h>0, to an R^d-valued Levy process X. The state space of X^h is an equidistant lattice and its Q-matrix is chosen to approximate the generator of X. In…

The generalized Langevin equation is used as a model for various coarse-grained physical processes, e.g., the time evolution of the velocity of a given larger particle in an implicitly represented solvent, when the relevant time scales of…

We provide a probabilistic description of the stationary measures for the open KPZ on the spatial interval $[0,1]$ in terms of a Markov process $Y$, which is a Doob's $h$ transform of the Brownian motion killed at an exponential rate. Our…

This paper is a continuation of our previous research on quadratic harnesses, that is, processes with linear regressions and quadratic conditional variances. Our main result is a construction of a Markov process from given orthogonal and…

Various recent results on quantum L\'evy processes are presented. The first part provides an introduction to the theory of L\'evy processes on involutive bialgebras. The notion of independence used for these processes is tensor…

The present status of theoretical calculations for signal and background processes relevant to the Higgs boson search at the LHC is reviewed, with special emphasis on recent developments. The issue of Higgs properties determination at the…

This is a survey paper of the developments on the geometric Bogomolov conjecture. We explain the recent results by the author as well as previous works concerning the conjecture. This paper also includes an introduction to the height theory…

The main purpose of this paper of the paper is an explicite construction of generalized Gaussian process with function $t_b(V)=b^{H(V)}$, where $H(V)=n-h(V)$, $h(V)$ is the number of singletons in a pair-partition $V \in \st{P}_2(2n)$. This…

We study the problem of characterizing the expected hitting times for a robust generalization of continuous-time Markov chains. This generalization is based on the theory of imprecise probabilities, and the models with which we work…

In this work, we extend the idea of Quantum Markov chains [S. Gudder. Quantum Markov chains. J. Math. Phys., 49(7), 2008] in order to propose Quantum Hidden Markov Models (QHMMs). For that, we use the notions of Transition Operation…
