Subordinators at First Passage and Renewal Measures

In this chapter, we look at subordinators. These are Lévy processes which have paths that are non-decreasing. In addition, we consider killed subordinators, that is, subordinators which are sent to a “cemetery state” at an independent time that is exponen

Universitext is a series of textbooks that presents material from a wide variety of mathematical disciplines at master’s level and beyond. The books, often well class-tested by their author, may have an informal, personal, even experimental approach to their subject matter. Some of the most successful and established books in the series have evolved through several editions, always following the evolution of teaching curricula, into very polished texts. Thus as research topics trickle down into graduate-level teaching, first textbooks written for new, cutting-edge courses may make their way into Universitext.
