Poisson stochastic integration in Banach spaces

We prove new upper and lower bounds for Banach space-valued stochastic integrals with respect to a compensated Poisson random measure. Our estimates apply to Banach spaces with non-trivial martingale (co)type and extend various results in the literature. We also develop a Malliavin framework to interpret Poisson stochastic integrals as vector-valued Skorohod integrals, and prove a Clark-Ocone representation formula.Comment: 26 page

Levy processes and stochastic integrals in Banach spaces

We review in¯nite divisibility and Levy processes in Banach spaces and discuss the relationship with notions of type and cotype. The Levy-It^o decomposition is described. Strong, weak and Pettis-style notions of stochastic integral are introduced and applied to construct generalised Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes

It\^{o} isomorphisms for LpL^{p}-valued Poisson stochastic integrals

Motivated by the study of existence, uniqueness and regularity of solutions to stochastic partial differential equations driven by jump noise, we prove It\^{o} isomorphisms for $L^p$-valued stochastic integrals with respect to a compensated Poisson random measure. The principal ingredients for the proof are novel Rosenthal type inequalities for independent random variables taking values in a (noncommutative) $L^p$-space, which may be of independent interest. As a by-product of our proof, we observe some moment estimates for the operator norm of a sum of independent random matrices.Comment: Published in at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/13-AOP906 the Annals of Probability (http://www.imstat.org/aop/) by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (http://www.imstat.org

Maximal inequality of Stochastic convolution driven by compensated Poisson random measures in Banach spaces

Let $(E, \| \cdot\|)$ be a Banach space such that, for some $q\geq 2$, the function $x\mapsto \|x\|^q$ is of $C^2$ class and its first and second Fr\'{e}chet derivatives are bounded by some constant multiples of $(q-1)$-th power of the norm and $(q-2)$-th power of the norm and let $S$ be a $C_0$-semigroup of contraction type on $(E, \| \cdot\|)$. We consider the following stochastic convolution process \begin{align*} u(t)=\int_0^t\int_ZS(t-s)\xi(s,z)\,\tilde{N}(\mathrm{d} s,\mathrm{d} z), \;\;\; t\geq 0, \end{align*} where $\tilde{N}$ is a compensated Poisson random measure on a measurable space $(Z,\mathcal{Z})$ and $\xi:[0,\infty)\times\Omega\times Z\rightarrow E$ is an $\mathbb{F}\otimes \mathcal{Z}$-predictable function. We prove that there exists a c\`{a}dl\`{a}g modification a $\tilde{u}$ of the process $u$ which satisfies the following maximal inequality \begin{align*} \mathbb{E} \sup_{0\leq s\leq t} \|\tilde{u}(s)\|^{q^\prime}\leq C\ \mathbb{E} \left(\int_0^t\int_Z \|\xi(s,z) \|^{p}\,N(\mathrm{d} s,\mathrm{d} z)\right)^{\frac{q^\prime}{p}}, \end{align*} for all $q^\prime \geq q$ and $1<p\leq 2$ with $C=C(q,p)$.Comment: This version is only very slightly updated as compared to the one from September 201

On maximal inequalities for purely discontinuous martingales in infinite dimensions

The purpose of this paper is to give a survey of a class of maximal inequalities for purely discontinuous martingales, as well as for stochastic integral and convolutions with respect to Poisson measures, in infinite dimensional spaces. Such maximal inequalities are important in the study of stochastic partial differential equations with noise of jump type.Comment: 19 pages, no figure

Radonifying operators and infinitely divisible Wiener integrals

In this article we illustrate the relation between the existence of Wiener integrals with respect to a Levy process in a separable Banach space and radonifying operators. For this purpose, we introduce the class of theta-radonifying operators, i.e. operators which map a cylindrical measure theta to a genuine Radon measure. We study this class of operators for various examples of infinitely divisible cylindrical measures theta and highlight the differences from the Gaussian case.Comment: 16 page

Cylindrical Levy processes in Banach spaces

Cylindrical probability measures are finitely additive measures on Banach spaces that have sigma-additive projections to Euclidean spaces of all dimensions. They are naturally associated to notions of weak (cylindrical) random variable and hence weak (cylindrical) stochastic processes. In this paper we focus on cylindrical Levy processes. These have (weak) Levy-Ito decompositions and an associated Levy-Khintchine formula. If the process is weakly square integrable, its covariance operator can be used to construct a reproducing kernel Hilbert space in which the process has a decomposition as an infinite series built from a sequence of uncorrelated bona fide one-dimensional Levy processes. This series is used to define cylindrical stochastic integrals from which cylindrical Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes may be constructed as unique solutions of the associated Cauchy problem. We demonstrate that such processes are cylindrical Markov processes and study their (cylindrical) invariant measures.Comment: 31 page
