In this paper, we introduce a new first-order mixture integer-valued threshold autoregressive process, based on the binomial and negative binomial thinning operators. Basic probabilistic and statistical properties of this model are…

The master equation for the reversible reaction A+A <--> 0 is considered in Poisson representation, where it is equivalent to a Langevin equation with imaginary noise for a complex stochastic variable \phi. Such Langevin equations appear…

A cylindrical Levy process does not enjoy a cylindrical version of the semi-martingale decomposition which results in the need to develop a completely novel approach to stochastic integration. In this work, we introduce a stochastic…

We investigate stochastic resetting in coupled systems involving two degrees of freedom, where only one variable is reset. The resetting variable, which we think of as hidden, indirectly affects the remaining observable variable through…

Motivated by classical considerations from risk theory, we investigate boundary crossing problems for refracted L\'evy processes. The latter is a L\'evy process whose dynamics change by subtracting off a fixed linear drift (of suitable…

Let $V$ be a finite set of indices, and let $B_i$, $i=1,\ldots,m$, be subsets of $V$ such that $V=\bigcup_{i=1}^{m}B_i$. Let $X_i$, $i\in V$, be independent random variables, and let $X_{B_i}=(X_j)_{j\in B_i}$. In this paper, we propose a…

In this paper, an optimal switching problem is proposed for one-dimensional reflected backward stochastic differential equations (RBSDEs, for short) where the generators, the terminal values and the barriers are all switched with positive…

We consider the dynamical evolution of a Brownian particle undergoing stochastic resetting, meaning that after random periods of time it is forced to return to the starting position. The intervals after which the random motion is stopped…

In this paper, we introduce a specific kind of doubly reflected Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (in short DRBSDEs), defined on probability spaces equipped with general filtration that is essentially non quasi-left continuous,…

We introduce a technique to merge two biased Brownian motions into a single regular process. The outcome follows a stochastic differential equation with a constant diffusion coefficient and a non-linear drift. The emerging stochastic…

We observe a stochastic process $Y$ on $[0,1]^d$ ($d\geq 1$) satisfying $dY(t)=n^{1/2}f(t)dt$ + $dW(t)$, $t \in [0,1]^d$, where $n \geq 1$ is a given scale parameter (`sample size'), $W$ is the standard Brownian sheet on $[0,1]^d$ and $f…

In this paper, we consider the so-called Shape Invariant Model which stands for the estimation of a function $f^0$ submitted to a random translation of law $g^0$ in a white noise model. We are interested in such a model when the law of the…

The purpose of this paper is to analyze certain statistics of a recently introduced non-uniform random tree model, biased recursive trees. This model is based on constructing a random tree by establishing a correspondence with non-uniform…

We consider maximum likelihood estimation for both causal and noncausal autoregressive time series processes with non-Gaussian $\alpha$-stable noise. A nondegenerate limiting distribution is given for maximum likelihood estimators of the…

We consider k-step recurrences of the form $z_{n+k} = A(z)/B(z)$, where A and B are linear functions of $z_n, z_{n+1}, ..., z_{n+k-1}$, which we call k-step linear fractional recurrences. The first Theorem in this paper shows that for each…

Counting inversions is a classic and important problem in databases. The number of inversions, $K^*$, in a list $L=(L(1),L(2),\ldots,L(n))$ is defined as the number of pairs $i < j$ with $L(i) > L(j)$. In this paper, new results for this…
