Hunt's hypothesis (H) and Getoor's conjecture for Lévy Processes

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, Hunt's hypothesis (H) and Getoor's conjecture for Lévy processes are revisited. Let XX be a Lévy process on Rn\mathbf{R}^n with Lévy-Khintchine exponent (a,A,μ)(a,A,μ). {First, we show that if AA is non-degenerate then XX satisfies (H). Second, under the assumption that μ(Rn\ARn)<∞μ({\mathbf{R}^n\backslash \sqrt{A}\mathbf{R}^n})<\infty, we show that XX satisfies (H) if and only if the equation Ay=−a−∫{x∈Rn\ARn: ∣x∣<1}xμ(dx), y∈Rn, \sqrt{A}y=-a-\int_{\{x\in {\mathbf{R}^n\backslash \sqrt{A}\mathbf{R}^n}:\,|x|<1\}}xμ(dx),\ y\in \mathbf{R}^n, has at least one solution. Finally, we show that if XX is a subordinator and satisfies (H) then its drift coefficient must be 0.}
