A complex question related to a certain convergence of Lévy measures
Consider the sequence of stochastic processes $(X_n, n \geq 1)$, where $X_n = (X_{t;n})_{t\in \mathbb Z}$ and:
\begin{equation}\label{I}\tag{SP}
X_{t;n} = \sum_{j=0}^\infty \theta_{jn} \varepsilon_{t-...

How to show that $\int x \,d\nu = 0$ using a pseudo-weak convergence of measures?
I have a sequence of $p$-dimensional infinitely divisible random vectors $S_n'$, such that $S_n' \Longrightarrow X$, as $n \to \infty$.
Suppose the following assumptions
The characteristic functions ...

Interpretation of the Lévy measure of an infinitely divisible random vector
We know that a random vector $X$ is infinitely divisible (ID) if for all $n \in \mathbb N$, there exist $X_1^n,..., X_{n}^n$ i.i.d. random vectors such that:
\begin{equation}
X = X_1^n + ...+ X_n^...

If $L_t=\sum_{i=1}^{N_t}Y_i$ is a compound Poisson process, then $\left|\left\{s\in[0,t]:\Delta L_s\in B\right\}\right|=\sum_{i=1}^{N_t}1_B(Y_i)$

Is the distribution of a Banach space valued Lévy process uniquely determined by its characteristic function?
Let $E$ be a $\mathbb R$-Banach space. Remember that if $\mu$ is a finite measure on $\mathcal B(E)$ then $$\Phi_\mu:E'\to\mathbb C\;,\;\;\;\varphi\mapsto\int\mu({\rm d}x)e^{{\rm i}\varphi(x)}$$ is ...
