We obtain an upper bound on the expected supremum of a Bernoulli process indexed by the image of an index set under a uniformly Lipschitz function class in terms of properties of the index set and the function class, extending an earlier…
It was recently proven that the correlation function of the stationary version of a reflected L\'evy process is nonnegative, nonincreasing and convex. In another branch of the literature it was established that the mean value of the…
In this note, we consider the construction of a one-dimensional stable Langevin type process confined in the upper half-plane and submitted to reflective-diffusive boundary conditions whenever the particle position hits 0. We show that two…
We discuss the Gamma Levy process, including path properties, the inverse process, integrability, and its spin-offs obtained by compounding, exponentiation, and other operations; further extendable to arbitrary sigma-finite continuous Borel…
Stationary ergodic processes with finite alphabets are estimated by finite memory processes from a sample, an n-length realization of the process, where the memory depth of the estimator process is also estimated from the sample using…
We prove a uniform functional law of the logarithm for the local empirical process. To accomplish this we combine techniques from classical and abstract empirical process theory, Gaussian distributional approximation and probability on…
In this paper, for $\alpha\in (1, 2}$ we show that the $\alpha$-stable continuous-state branching process and the associated process conditioned never to become extinct are positive self-similar Markov processes. Understanding the…
We study the long-time behaviour of matrix-valued stochastic exponentials of L\'evy processes, i.e. of multiplicative L\'evy processes in the general linear group. In particular, we prove laws of large numbers as well as central limit…
This work concerns the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type process associated to a positive self-similar Markov process $(X(t))_{t\geq 0}$ which drifts to $\infty$, namely $U(t):= {\rm e}^{-t}X({\rm e}^t-1)$. We point out that $U$ is always a…
Around the 1960s a celebrated collection of papers emerged offering a number of explicit identities for the class of isotropic stable processes in one and higher dimensions; these include, for example, the lauded works of Blumenthal,…
The running infimum of a Levy process relative to its point of issue is know to have the same range that of the negative of a certain subordinator. Conditioning a Levy process issued from a strictly positive value to stay positive may…
We establish functional limit theorems for ergodic sums of observables with power singularities for expanding circle maps. In the regime where the observables have infinite variance, we show that when rescaled by $N^{1/s}(\ln N)^\alpha$,…
In this paper, we consider a continuous-time Markov decision process (CTMDP) in Borel spaces, where the certainty equivalent with respect to the exponential utility of the total undiscounted cost is to be minimized. The cost rate is…
We prove distributional limit theorems and one-sided laws of the iterated logarithm for a class of positive, mixing, stationary, stochastic processes which contains those obtained from non-integrable observables over certain piecewise…
Under sharp conditions, we prove the existence and refined asymptotic behaviour near zero (resp., at infinity) for all positive radial solutions to elliptic equations such as \begin{equation}\label{eq11} \tag{*} \mathbb…
In this paper, the weak convergence of impulsive recurrent process with Markov switching in the scheme of Levy approximation is proved. For the relative compactness, a method proposed by R. Liptser for semimartingales is used with a…
A labelled Markov process (LMP) consists of a measurable space $S$ together with an indexed family of Markov kernels from $S$ to itself. This structure has been used to model probabilistic computations in Computer Science, and one of the…
Let $u(s,t)$ be a continuous potential density of a symmetric L\'evy process or diffusion with state space $T$ killed at $T_{0}$, the first hitting time of $0$, or at $\lambda \wedge T_{0}$, where $\lambda$ is an independent exponential…
For near-critical, transient Markov chains on the non-negative integers in the Lamperti regime, where the mean drift at $x$ decays as $1/x$ as $x \to \infty$, we quantify degree of transience via existence of moments for conditional return…
We establish strong invariance principles for sums of stationary and ergodic processes with nearly optimal bounds. Applications to linear and some nonlinear processes are discussed. Strong laws of large numbers and laws of the iterated…
