Consider a sequence (Z_n,Z_n^M) of bivariate L\'evy processes, such that Z_n is a spectrally positive L\'evy process with finite variation, and Z_n^M is the counting process of marks in {0,1} carried by the jumps of Z_n. The study of these…

We establish a link between the distribution of an exponential functional I and the undershoots of a subordinator, which is given in terms of the associated harmonic potential measure. This allows us to give a necessary and sufficient…

We study one-dimensional Levy processes with Levy-Khintchine exponent psi(xi^2), where psi is a complete Bernstein function. These processes are subordinate Brownian motions corresponding to subordinators, whose Levy measure has completely…

We study the exponential dissipation of entropic functionals for continuous time Markov chains and the associated convex Sobolev inequalities, including MLSI and Beckner inequalities. We propose a method that combines the Bakry \'Emery…

L\'evy's Upward Theorem says that the conditional expectation of an integrable random variable converges with probability one to its true value with increasing information. In this paper, we use methods from effective probability theory to…

We show some Chung-type $\liminf$ law of the iterated logarithm results at zero for a class of (pure-jump) Feller or L\'evy-type processes. This class includes all L\'evy processes. The norming function is given in terms of the symbol of…

We generalize the usual exponential Boltzmann factor to any reasonable and potentially observable distribution function, $B(E)$. By defining generalized logarithms $\Lambda$ as inverses of these distribution functions, we are led to a…

Given an observation of the uniform empirical process $\alp_n$, its functional increments $\alp_n(u+a_n\cdot)-\alp_n(u)$ can be viewed as a single random process, when $u$ is distributed under the Lebesgue measure. We investigate the almost…

We develop a framework for the operationalization of models and parameters by combining de Finetti's representation theorem with a conditional form of Sanov's theorem. This synthesis, the tilted de Finetti theorem, shows that conditioning…

We consider Kallenberg's hypothesis on the characteristic function of a L\'{e}vy process and show that it allows the construction of weakly continuous bridges of the L\'{e}vy process conditioned to stay positive. We therefore provide a…

We show weak convergence of the time-$t$ marginals for the integrated variance in a re-scaled rough Heston model to an Inverse Gaussian L\'{e}vy process. This shows we can obtain such a limit without having to impose that the true Hurst…
