A comprehensive account of the theory of Levy processes, using probabilistic structure and analytic tools, especially Fourier and Laplace transforms, to explain the core theory, with a minimum of technical requirements. Special properties of subordinators are developed and appear as key features in the study of the local times of real-valued Levy processes and in fluctuation theory. Levy processes with no positive jumps, as well as stable processes, receive special attention. Includes exercises and comments. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)Book Details
