On Paszkiewicz-type criterion for a.e. continuity of processes in L p -spaces

Jakub Olejnik (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

In this paper we consider processes Xₜ with values in L p , p ≥ 1 on subsets T of a unit cube in ℝⁿ satisfying a natural condition of boundedness of increments, i.e. a process has bounded increments if for some non-decreasing f: ℝ₊ → ℝ₊ ||Xₜ-Xₛ||ₚ ≤ f(||t-s||), s,t ∈ T. We give a sufficient criterion for a.s. continuity of all processes with bounded increments on subsets of a given set T. This criterion turns out to be necessary for a wide class of functions f. We use a geometrical Paszkiewicz-type...

Stationary distributions for jump processes with memory

K. Burdzy, T. Kulczycki, R. L. Schilling (2012)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We analyze a jump processes Z with a jump measure determined by a “memory” process S . The state space of ( Z , S ) is the Cartesian product of the unit circle and the real line. We prove that the stationary distribution of ( Z , S ) is the product of the uniform probability measure and a Gaussian distribution.

Approximation of a symmetric α-stable Lévy process by a Lévy process with finite moments of all orders

Z. Michna (2007)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

In this paper we consider a symmetric α-stable Lévy process Z. We use a series representation of Z to condition it on the largest jump. Under this condition, Z can be presented as a sum of two independent processes. One of them is a Lévy process Y x parametrized by x > 0 which has finite moments of all orders. We show that Y x converges to Z uniformly on compact sets with probability one as x↓ 0. The first term in the cumulant expansion of Y x corresponds to a Brownian motion which implies...

Lévy processes conditioned on having a large height process

Mathieu Richard (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

In the present work, we consider spectrally positive Lévy processes ( X t , t 0 ) not drifting to + and we are interested in conditioning these processes to reach arbitrarily large heights (in the sense of the height process associated with X ) before hitting 0 . This way we obtain a new conditioning of Lévy processes to stay positive. The (honest) law x of this conditioned process (starting at x g t ; 0 ) is defined as a Doob h -transform via a martingale. For Lévy processes with infinite variation paths,...

On smoothing properties of transition semigroups associated to a class of SDEs with jumps

Seiichiro Kusuoka, Carlo Marinelli (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We prove smoothing properties of nonlocal transition semigroups associated to a class of stochastic differential equations (SDE) in d driven by additive pure-jump Lévy noise. In particular, we assume that the Lévy process driving the SDE is the sum of a subordinated Wiener process Y (i.e. Y = W T , where T is an increasing pure-jump Lévy process starting at zero and independent of the Wiener process W ) and of an arbitrary Lévy process independent of Y , that the drift coefficient is continuous...

On pathwise uniqueness for stochastic differential equations driven by stable Lévy processes

Nicolas Fournier (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We study a one-dimensional stochastic differential equation driven by a stable Lévy process of order α with drift and diffusion coefficients b , σ . When α ( 1 , 2 ) , we investigate pathwise uniqueness for this equation. When α ( 0 , 1 ) , we study another stochastic differential equation, which is equivalent in law, but for which pathwise uniqueness holds under much weaker conditions. We obtain various results, depending on whether α ( 0 , 1 ) or α ( 1 , 2 ) and on whether the driving stable process is symmetric or not. Our...

Large scale behaviour of the spatial 𝛬 -Fleming–Viot process

N. Berestycki, A. M. Etheridge, A. Véber (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider the spatial 𝛬 -Fleming–Viot process model ( (2010) 162–216) for frequencies of genetic types in a population living in d , in the special case in which there are just two types of individuals, labelled 0 and 1 . At time zero, everyone in a given half-space has type 1, whereas everyone in the complementary half-space has type 0 . We are concerned with patterns of frequencies of the two types at large space and time scales. We consider two cases, one in which the...

The weak convergence of regenerative processes using some excursion path decompositions

Amaury Lambert, Florian Simatos (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

We consider regenerative processes with values in some general Polish space. We define their ε -big excursions as excursions e such that ϕ ( e ) g t ; ε , where ϕ is some given functional on the space of excursions which can be thought of as, e.g., the length or the height of e . We establish a general condition that guarantees the convergence of a sequence of regenerative processes involving the convergence of ε -big excursions and of their endpoints, for all ε in a set whose closure contains 0 . Finally,...

On the strong Brillinger-mixing property of α -determinantal point processes and some applications

Lothar Heinrich (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

Similarity:

First, we derive a representation formula for all cumulant density functions in terms of the non-negative definite kernel function C ( x , y ) defining an α -determinantal point process (DPP). Assuming absolute integrability of the function C 0 ( x ) = C ( o , x ) , we show that a stationary α -DPP with kernel function C 0 ( x ) is “strongly” Brillinger-mixing, implying, among others, that its tail- σ -field is trivial. Second, we use this mixing property to prove rates of normal convergence for shot-noise processes and sketch...

Covariance structure of wide-sense Markov processes of order k ≥ 1

Arkadiusz Kasprzyk, Władysław Szczotka (2006)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

A notion of a wide-sense Markov process X t of order k ≥ 1, X t W M ( k ) , is introduced as a direct generalization of Doob’s notion of wide-sense Markov process (of order k=1 in our terminology). A base for investigation of the covariance structure of X t is the k-dimensional process x t = ( X t - k + 1 , . . . , X t ) . The covariance structure of X t W M ( k ) is considered in the general case and in the periodic case. In the general case it is shown that X t W M ( k ) iff x t is a k-dimensional WM(1) process and iff the covariance function of x t has the triangular...

Small positive values for supercritical branching processes in random environment

Vincent Bansaye, Christian Böinghoff (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

Branching Processes in Random Environment (BPREs) ( Z n : n 0 ) are the generalization of Galton–Watson processes where in each generation the reproduction law is picked randomly in an i.i.d. manner. In the supercritical case, the process survives with positive probability and then almost surely grows geometrically. This paper focuses on rare events when the process takes positive but small values for large times. We describe the asymptotic behavior of ( 1 Z n k | Z 0 = i ) , k , i as n . More precisely, we characterize...

Stochastic differential equations with Sobolev drifts and driven by α -stable processes

Xicheng Zhang (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

In this article we prove the pathwise uniqueness for stochastic differential equations in d with time-dependent Sobolev drifts, and driven by symmetric α -stable processes provided that α ( 1 , 2 ) and its spectral measure is non-degenerate. In particular, the drift is allowed to have jump discontinuity when α ( 2 d d + 1 , 2 ) . Our proof is based on some estimates of Krylov’s type for purely discontinuous semimartingales.

Convergence to stable laws and a local limit theorem for stochastic recursions

Mariusz Mirek (2010)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider the random recursion X x = M X n - 1 x + Q + N ( X n - 1 x ) , where x ∈ ℝ and (Mₙ,Qₙ,Nₙ) are i.i.d., Qₙ has a heavy tail with exponent α > 0, the tail of Mₙ is lighter and N ( X n - 1 x ) is smaller at infinity, than M X n - 1 x . Using the asymptotics of the stationary solutions we show that properly normalized Birkhoff sums S x = k = 0 n X k x converge weakly to an α-stable law for α ∈ (0,2]. The related local limit theorem is also proved.

Small and large time stability of the time taken for a Lévy process to cross curved boundaries

Philip S. Griffin, Ross A. Maller (2013)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

This paper is concerned with the small time behaviour of a Lévy process X . In particular, we investigate theof the times, T ¯ b ( r ) and T b * ( r ) , at which X , started with X 0 = 0 , first leaves the space-time regions { ( t , y ) 2 : y r t b , t 0 } (one-sided exit), or { ( t , y ) 2 : | y | r t b , t 0 } (two-sided exit), 0 b l t ; 1 , as r 0 . Thus essentially we determine whether or not these passage times behave like deterministic functions in the sense of different modes of convergence; specifically convergence in probability, almost surely and in L p . In many instances these are...

Stable solutions of Δ u = f ( u ) in N

Louis Dupaigne, Alberto Farina (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Several Liouville-type theorems are presented for stable solutions of the equation - Δ u = f ( u ) in N , where f > 0 is a general convex, nondecreasing function. Extensions to solutions which are merely stable outside a compact set are discussed.

Limit distributions for multitype branching processes of m -ary search trees

Brigitte Chauvin, Quansheng Liu, Nicolas Pouyanne (2014)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

Let m 3 be an integer. The so-calledis a discrete time Markov chain which is very popular in theoretical computer science, modelling famous algorithms used in searching and sorting. This random process satisfies a well-known phase transition: when m 26 , the asymptotic behavior of the process is Gaussian, but for m 27 it is no longer Gaussian and a limit W D T of a complex-valued martingale arises. In this paper, we consider the multitype branching process which is the continuous time version of...

An asymptotic test for Quantitative Trait Locus detection in presence of missing genotypes

Charles-Elie Rabier (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

We consider the likelihood ratio test (LRT) process related to the test of the absence of QTL (a QTL denotes a quantitative trait locus, i.e. a gene with quantitative effect on a trait) on the interval [ 0 , T ] representing a chromosome. The originality is in the fact that some genotypes are missing. We give the asymptotic distribution of this LRT process under the null hypothesis that there is no QTL on [ 0 , T ] and under local alternatives with a QTL at t on [ 0 , T ] . We show that the LRT process is asymptotically...

Stable random fields and geometry

Shigeo Takenaka (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let (M,d) be a metric space with a fixed origin O. P. Lévy defined Brownian motion X(a); a ∈ M as 0. X(O) = 0. 1. X(a) - X(b) is subject to the Gaussian law of mean 0 and variance d(a,b). He gave an example for M = S m , the m-dimensional sphere. Let Y ( B ) ; B ( S m ) be the Gaussian random measure on S m , that is, 1. Y(B) is a centered Gaussian system, 2. the variance of Y(B) is equal of μ(B), where μ is the uniform measure on S m , 3. if B₁ ∩ B₂ = ∅ then Y(B₁) is independent of Y(B₂). 4. for B i , i = 1,2,..., B i B j = ,...
