On the Novikov-Shiryaev optimal stopping problems in continuous time.
We consider a homogeneous fragmentation process with killing at an exponential barrier. With the help of two families of martingales we analyse the decay of the largest fragment for parameter values that allow for survival. In this respect the present paper is also concerned with the probability of extinction of the killed process.
Let be the branching particle diffusion corresponding to the operator +(2−) on ⊆ℝ (where ≥0 and ≢0). Let denote the generalized principal eigenvalue for the operator + on and assume that it is finite. When >0 and +− satisfies certain spectral theoretical conditions, we prove that the random measure {− } converges almost surely in the vague topology as tends to infinity. This result is motivated...
