ON THE STRONG MARKOV PROPERTY

The Strong Markov Property

Throughout, X := {X ï¿¿ } ï¿¿≥0 denotes a Lévy process on R ï¿¿ with triple (ï¿¿ ï¿¿ σï¿¿ ï¿¿), and exponent Ψ. And from now on, we let {ï¿¿ ï¿¿ } ï¿¿≥0 denote the natural filtration of X, all the time remembering that, in accord with our earlier convention, {ï¿¿ ï¿¿ } ï¿¿≥0 satisfies the usual conditions. Definition 1. The transition measures of X are the probability measures P ï¿¿ (ï¿¿ ï¿¿ A)...

Strong Ratio Limit Property for P-recurrent Markov Chains

for some positive integer d, then SRLP holds. It is also shown that the inequality (1.2) is always satisfied in a reversible chain. When P = 1, the results given here reduce to those of Orey [7] for recurrent chains, while for P> 1 they imply SRLP for a class of transient chains. (The definition of SRLP given by Orey required that 7=1 and that r< be independent of i since he was dealing with re...

Strong Markov property of Poisson processes and Slivnyak formula

We discuss strong Markov property of Poisson point processes and the related stopping sets. Viewing Poisson process as a set indexed random field, we demonstrate how the martingale technique applies to establish the analogues of the classical results: Doob’s theorem, Wald identity in this multi-dimensional setting. In particular, we show that the famous Slivnyak-Mecke theorem characterising the...

On the strong p-Helly property

The notion of strong p-Helly hypergraphs was introduced by Golumbic and Jamison in 1985 [M.C. Golumbic, R.E. Jamison, The edge intersection graphs of paths in a tree, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 38 (1985) 8–22]. Independently, other authors [A. Bretto, S. Ubéda, J. Žerovnik, A polynomial algorithm for the strong Helly property. Inform. Process. Lett. 81 (2002) 55–57, E. Prisner, Hereditary clique-...
