This paper explores various distributional aspects of random variables defined as the ratio of two independent positive random variables where one variable has an $α$-stable law, for $0<α<1$, and the other variable has the law defined by polynomially tilting the density of an $α$-stable random variable by a factor $θ>-α$. When $θ=0$, these variables equate with the ratio investigated by Lamperti [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 88 (1958) 380--387] which, remarkably, was shown to have a simple density. This variable arises in a variety of areas and gains importance from a close connection to the stable laws. This rationale, and connection to the $\operatorname {PD}(α,θ)$ distribution, motivates the investigations of its generalizations which we refer to as Lamperti-type laws. We identify and exploit links to random variables that commonly appear in a variety of applications. Namely Linnik, generalized Pareto and $z$-distributions. In each case we obtain new results that are of potential interest. As some highlights, we then use these results to (i) obtain integral representations and other identities for a class of generalized Mittag--Leffler functions, (ii) identify explicitly the Lévy density of the semigroup of stable continuous state branching processes (CSBP) and hence corresponding limiting distributions derived in Slack and in Zolotarev [Z. Wahrsch. Verw. Gebiete 9 (1968) 139--145, Teor. Veroyatn. Primen. 2 (1957) 256--266], which are related to the recent work by Berestycki, Berestycki and Schweinsberg, and Bertoin and LeGall [Ann. Inst. H. Poincaré Probab. Statist. 44 (2008) 214--238, Illinois J. Math. 50 (2006) 147--181] on beta coalescents. (iii) We obtain explicit results for the occupation time of generalized Bessel bridges and some interesting stochastic equations for $\operatorname {PD}(α,θ)$-bridges. In particular we obtain the best known results for the density of the time spent positive of a Bessel bridge of dimension $2-2α$.

Deep factorisation of the stable process III: Radial excursion theory and the point of closest reach
在本文中,我们继续从自相似马尔可夫过程理论的角度来理解稳定过程,这是基于Kyprianou(2016)和Kyprianou等人(2017)最近论文的精神。特别地,我们将注意力转向$d$维各向同性稳定过程的情形,对于$d\geq 2$ .使用一种全新的方法,我们考虑最近到达点的分布。这让我们为这类稳定过程得出了许多其他实质性的新结果。我们从事一个新的径向偏移理论,以前从未使用过,从我们开发的经典Blumenthal-Getoor射线身份首次进入/退出到一个球,参见。Blumenthal et al.(1961),to the setting of $n$ -tuple laws.我们明确确定的平稳分布的稳定过程时,反映在其运行的径向上确界。此外,我们提供了一个表示的Wiener-Hopf分解的MAP的基础上的稳定的过程,通过Lamperti-Kiu变换。
