On level and collision sets of some Feller processes

This paper is about lower and upper bounds for the Hausdorff dimension of the level and collision sets of a class of Feller processes. Our approach is motivated by analogous results for Lévy processes by Hawkes (for level sets), Taylor and Jain & Pruitt (for collision sets). Since Feller processes lack independent or stationary increments, the methods developed for Lévy processes cannot be used in a straightforward manner. Under the assumption that the Feller process possesses a transition probability density, which admits lower and upper bounds of a certain type, we derive sufficient conditions for regularity and non-polarity of points; together with suitable time changes this allows us to get upper and lower bounds for the Hausdorff dimension.
