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.Abstract:

A functional limit theorem for stochastic integrals driven by a time-changed symmetric α-stable Lévy process
TL;DR: In this paper, the convergence of a deterministic function driven by a time-changed symmetric α-stable Levy process is proved in the Skorokhod space endowed with the M1-topology of a sequence of stochastic integrals.

Dynamical inference for transitions in stochastic systems with α-stable Lévy noise*
TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider transition phenomena between metastable states for a stochastic system with non-Gaussian -stable Levy noise and compute the corresponding non-local Zakai equation and its discrete time counterpart, and examine the most probable orbits for the state system.

Unimodality of the Freely Selfdecomposable Probability Laws
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that any freely self-decomposable probability law is unimodal, i.e., it is not a self-conditional probability law, and this is the free probabilistic analog of Yamazato's result in (Ann. Probab. 6:523-531, 1978).
