Density in small time for Lévy processes

Jean Picard (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

The density of real-valued Lévy processes is studied in small time under the assumption that the process has many small jumps. We prove that the real line can be divided into three subsets on which the density is smaller and smaller: the set of points that the process can reach with a finite number of jumps (Δ-accessible points); the set of points that the process can reach with an infinite number of jumps (asymptotically Δ-accessible points); and the set of points that the process...

Excursions of the integral of the brownian motion

Emmanuel Jacob (2010)

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

Similarity:

The integrated brownian motion is sometimes known as the Langevin process. Lachal studied several excursion laws induced by the latter. Here we follow a different point of view developed by Pitman for general stationary processes. We first construct a stationary Langevin process and then determine explicitly its stationary excursion measure. This is then used to provide new descriptions of Itô’s excursion measure of the Langevin process reflected at a completely inelastic boundary, which...
