نویسنده
چکیده
We prove the Wiener-Hopf factorization for Markov Additive processes. We derive also Spitzer-Rogozin theorem for this class of processes which serves for obtaining Kendall’s formula and Fristedt representation of the cumulant matrix of the ladder epoch process. Finally, we also obtain the so-called ballot theorem.

Probability Theory Exponential Functional of Lévy Processes: Generalized Weierstrass Products and Wiener-hopf Factorization
In this note, we state a representation of the Mellin transform of the exponential functional of Lévy processes in terms of generalized Weierstrass products. As by-product, we obtain a multiplicative Wiener-Hopf factorization generalizing previous results obtained by the authors in [14] as well as smoothness properties of its distribution. Résumé. Fonctionnelle exponentielle des processus de Lé...
متن کاملFast and accurate pricing of barrier options under Lévy processes
We suggest two new fast and accurate methods, Fast Wiener-Hopf method (FWH-method) and Iterative Wiener-Hopf method (IWH-method), for pricing barrier options for a wide class of Lévy processes. Both methods use the Wiener-Hopf factorization and Fast Fourier Transform algorithm. Using an accurate albeit relatively slow finite-difference algorithm developed in Levendorskǐi et al (2006) (FDS-metho...
متن کاملA Wiener-Hopf Monte-Carlo simulation technique for Levy processes
We develop a completely new and straightforward method for simulating the joint law of the position and running maximum at a fixed time of a general Lévy process with a view to application in insurance and financial mathematics. Although different, our method takes lessons from Carr’s so-called “Canadization” technique as well as Doney’s method of stochastic bounds for Lévy processes; see Carr ...
متن کاملMeasures Which Are Convolution Exponentials
Let M(R) denote the measure algebra on the additive group of the reals. R. G. Douglas recently pointed out to us the importance of the following question in the study of Wiener-Hopf integral equations: if fxÇ:M(R) is invertible, then under what conditions does jit = exp(j>) for some vGM(R)? The relevance of the above question in integral equations stems from the fact that if JJLÇÏM(R) is invert...
متن کاملThe Wiener-Hopf factorization
We give a description of the classical Wiener-Hopf factorization from the point of view of excursion theory concentrating mainly on the case of random walks as opposed to Lévy processes. The exposition relies primarily on the ideas of Greenwood and Pitman (1979, 1980).
