The representation is shown to allow exact sampling of the first passage triplet. Consequences of the representation include the joint law of the value and the running maximum of the process at a fixed time point, and a joint law of the first passage triplet and the running maximum before the first passage.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-01-21T20:40:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60G51", "60E07" ], "keywords": [ "spectrally positive strictly stable process", "first passage triplet", "exact sampling", "joint law", "representation" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
