Stochastic Bounds for Lévy Processes
نویسنده
چکیده
Using the Wiener–Hopf factorization, it is shown that it is possible to bound the path of an arbitrary Lévy process above and below by the paths of two random walks. These walks have the same step distribution, but different random starting points. In principle, this allows one to deduce Lévy process versions of many known results about the large-time behavior of random walks. This is illustrated by establishing a comprehensive theorem about Lévy processes which converge to ∞ in probability.

Risk Bounds for Levy Processes in the PAC-Learning Framework
Lévy processes play an important role in the stochastic process theory. However, since samples are non-i.i.d., statistical learning results based on the i.i.d. scenarios cannot be utilized to study the risk bounds for Lévy processes. In this paper, we present risk bounds for non-i.i.d. samples drawn from Lévy processes in the PAC-learning framework. In particular, by using a concentration inequ...
متن کاملRisk bounds of learning processes for Lévy processes
Lévy processes refer to a class of stochastic processes, for example, Poisson processes and Brownian motions, and play an important role in stochastic processes and machine learning. Therefore, it is essential to study risk bounds of the learning process for time-dependent samples drawn from a Lévy process (or briefly called learning process for Lévy process). It is noteworthy that samples in t...
متن کاملNonparametric adaptive estimation for discretely observed Lévy processes
This thesis deals with nonparametric estimation methods for discretely observed Lévy processes. The following statistical framework is considered: A Lévy process X having finite variation on compact sets and finite second moments is observed at low frequency. In this situation, the jump dynamics is fully described by the finite signed measure μ(dx) = xν(dy). The goal is to estimate, nonparametr...
متن کاملConvex ordering criteria for Lévy processes
Modelling financial and insurance time series with Lévy processes or with exponential Lévy processes is a relevant actual practice and an active area of research. It allows qualitatively and quantitatively good adaptation to the empirical statistical properties of asset returns. Due to model incompleteness it is a problem of considerable interest to determine the dependence of option prices in ...
متن کاملNonlinear stochastic integrals for hyperfinite Lévy processes
We develop a notion of nonlinear stochastic integrals for hyperfinite Lévy processes, and use it to find exact formulas for expressions which are intuitively of the form Pt s=0 φ(ω, dls, s) and Qt s=0 ψ(ω, dls, s), where l is a Lévy process. These formulas are then applied to geometric Lévy processes, infinitesimal transformations of hyperfinite Lévy processes, and to minimal martingale measure...
