We show the equivalence of three properties for an infinitely divisible distribution: the subexponentiality of the density, the subexponentiality of the density of its L\'evy measure and the tail equivalence between the density and its…

We look at a measure, $\lambda^\infty$, on the infinite-dimensional space, ${\mathbb R}^\infty$, for which we attempt to put forth an analogue of the Lebesgue density theorem. Although this measure allows us to find partial results, for…

Let $(\xi,\eta)$ be a bivariate L\'evy process such that the integral $\int\_0^\infty e^{-\xi\_{t-}} d\eta\_t$ converges almost surely. We characterise, in terms of their \LL measures, those L\'evy processes for which (the distribution of)…

Belinschi et al. [Adv. Math., 226 (2011), 3677--3698] proved that the normal distribution is freely infinitely divisible. This paper establishes a certain monotonicity, real analyticity and asymptotic behavior of the density of the free…

By using Bismut's approach about the Malliavin calculus with jumps, we study the regularity of the distributional density for SDEs driven by degenerate additive L\'evy noises. Under full H\"ormander's conditions, we prove the existence of…

A uniformly continuously integrable sequence of real-valued measurable functions, defined on some probability space, is relatively compact in the $\sigma(L^1,L^\infty)$ topology. In this paper, we link such a result to weak convergence…

A random vector ${\bf X}$ is weakly stable iff for all $a,b \in \mathbb{R}$ there exists a random variable $\Theta$ such that $a{\bf X} + b {\bf X}' \stackrel{d}{=} {\bf X} \Theta$, where $X'$ is an independent copy of $X$ and $\Theta$ is…

The one dimensional distribution of a L\'{e}vy process is not known in general even though its characteristic function is given by the famous L\'{e}vy-Khinchine theorem. This article gives an exact series representation for the one…

We consider infinitely divisible distributions with symmetric L\'evy measure and study the absolute continuity of them with respect to the Lebesgue measure. We prove that if $\eta(r)=\int_{|x|\le r} x^2 \nu(dx)$ where $\nu$ is the L\'evy…

In this paper, we derive a characterization theorem for the path-independent property of the density of the Girsanov transformation for {\it degenerated} stochastic differential equations (SDEs), extending the characterization theorem of…

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…

We show that, under the long-tailedness of the densities of normalized L\'evy measures, the densities of infinitely divisible distributions on the half line are subexponential if and only if the densities of their normalized L\'evy measures…

We establish a novel characterisation of the law of the convex minorant of any L\'evy process. Our self-contained elementary proof is based on the analysis of piecewise linear convex functions and requires only very basic properties of…

In this paper, we present a comprehensive theory of generalized and weak generalized convolutions, illustrate it by a large number of examples, and discuss the related infinitely divisible distributions. We consider L\'{e}vy and additive…

We show that classical density functional theory can be based on the constrained search method [M. Levy, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 76, 6062 (1979)]. From the Gibbs inequality one first derives a variational principle for the grand potential as…

It is shown that the distribution derived from the principle of maximum Tsallis entropy is a superposable Levy-type distribution. Concomitantly, the leading order correction to the limit distribution is also deduced. This demonstration…

We prove that convex functions of finite order on the real line and subharmonic functions of finite order on finite dimensional real space, bounded from above outside of some set of zero relative Lebesgue density, are bounded from above…

The L\'evy distribution, alongside the Normal and Cauchy distributions, is one of the only three stable distributions whose density can be obtained in a closed form. However, there are only a few specific goodness-of-fit tests for the…

According to the Dudley-Wichura extension of the Skorohod representation theorem, convergence in distribution to a limit in a separable set is equivalent to the existence of a coupling with elements converging a.s. in the metric. A density…

We introduce a class of distributions originating from an exponential family and having a property related to the strict stability property. A characteristic function representation for this family is obtained and its properties are…
