More precisely, we show that if the L\\'evy measure associated with this noise has a positive absolute moment, then the L\\'evy white noise almost surely takes values in the space of tempered distributions. If the L\\'evy measure does not have a positive absolute moment of any order, then the event on which the L\\'evy white noise is a tempered distribution has probability zero.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-09-17T14:51:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60G51", "60G60", "60G20", "60H40" ], "keywords": [ "tempered distribution", "lévy white noise", "levy white noise", "lévy processes", "positive absolute moment" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150905274D" } } }
