We discuss conditionings to avoid two points and one-point local time penalizations with conditioning to avoid another point, for which we adopt various clocks. We also give corrections to some of the previous results of Takeda--Yano for…
Takeda-Yano determined the limit of L\'{e}vy processes conditioned to avoid zero via various random clocks in terms of Doob's $h$-transform, where the limit processes may differ according to the choice of random clocks. The purpose of this…

For a L\'evy process on the real line, we provide complete criteria for the finiteness of exponential moments of the first passage time into the interval $(r,\infty)$, the sojourn time in the interval $(-\infty,r]$, and the last exit time…
We consider the passage time problem for L\'evy processes, emphasising heavy tailed cases. Results are obtained under quite mild assumptions, namely, drift to $-\infty$ a.s. of the process, possibly at a linear rate (the finite mean case),…
In this paper we study the mean of the first exit time from a bounded interval of various L\'evy processes. We establish sharp two-sided estimates of the mean for L\'evy processes under certain condition on their characteristic exponents.…
The purpose of this paper is to construct the law of a L\'evy process conditioned to avoid zero, under mild technicals conditions, two of them being that the point zero is regular for itself and the L\'evy process is not a compound Poisson…
We give an explicit bound for the $L_1$-distance between two additive processes of local characteristics $(f_j(\cdot),\sigma^2(\cdot),\nu_j)$, $j = 1,2$. The cases $\sigma =0$ and $\sigma > 0$ are both treated. We allow $\nu_1$ and $\nu_2$…
We study the small-time asymptotics of sample paths of L\'evy processes and L\'evy-type processes. Namely, we investigate under which conditions the limit $$\limsup_{t \to 0} \frac{1}{f(t)} |X_t-X_0|$$ is finite resp.\ infinite with…
In many random search processes of interest in chemistry, biology or during rescue operations, an entity must find a specific target site before the latter becomes inactive, no longer available for reaction or lost. We present exact results…

We provide asymptotic results and develop high frequency statistical procedures for time-changed L\'evy processes sampled at random instants. The sampling times are given by first hitting times of symmetric barriers whose distance with…
This paper provides a multivariate extension of Bertoin's pathwise construction of a L\'evy process conditioned to stay positive/negative. Thus obtained processes conditioned to stay in half-spaces are closely related to the original…
The first passage time process of a L\'evy subordinator with heavy-tailed L\'evy measure has long-range dependent paths. The random fluctuations that appear under two natural schemes of summation and time scaling of such stochastic…
