We confirm the conjecture stated therein that in dimension d greater than 1 this process class does not exhibit jumps of infinite total variation. This constitutes a geometric phenomenon which is in contrast to the situation on the positive real line (Kawazu and Watanabe, 1974). As an application we prove that the exponentially affine property of the Laplace transform carries over to the Fourier-Laplace transform if the diffusion coefficient is zero or invertible.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2012-06-06T20:31:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60J25", "91B70" ], "keywords": [ "affine processes", "positive semidefinite", "finite variation", "laplace transform carries", "infinite total variation" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1104.0784M" } } }
