健一 佐藤
TLDR
In this paper, the authors consider the distributional properties of Levy processes and propose a potential theory for Levy processes, which is based on the Wiener-Hopf factorization.

Moments and ergodicity of the jump-diffusion CIR process

TL;DR: In this paper, the jump-diffusion CIR process is studied and sufficient conditions on the Levy measure of the subordinator are provided under which the jump diffusion process is ergodic.

Poisson Bandits of Evolving Shade of Gray

TL;DR: Stopping decisions in a model with Poisson bandits of "evolving shade of gray" are qualitatively different from those in optimal stopping or Poisson bandit models, and it is demonstrated that it may not be optimal to act immediately upon observation even if successes or failures are conclusive.

Importance sampling and statistical Romberg method for Lévy processes

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a statistical Romberg method to improve the complexity of the classical Monte Carlo method for simulatable compound Poisson processes and proved the central limit theorems of Lindeberg-Feller type for the inferred errors depending on the parameters.

A solution selection problem with small symmetric stable perturbations

TL;DR: In this article, the zero-noise limit of differential equations with singular coefficients was investigated for the first time in the case when the noise is an α-stable process and it was proved that extremal solutions were selected and the respective probability of selection was computed.

Optimal stopping and perpetual options for Lévy processes

TL;DR: A closed formula for prices of perpetual American call options in terms of the overall supremum of the Lévy process, and a corresponding closed formulas for perpetual American put options involving the infimum of the after-mentioned process are obtained.
