Coupling property and gradient estimates of Lévy processes via the symbol (Q1932221): Difference between revisions

Based on the asymptotic behaviour of the symbol or the characteristic exponent near zero and infinity, respectively, the authors prove two main results: the coupling property for the transition semigroup of a Lévy process and gradient estimates for the associated semigroup of transition operators. Two examples are included to illustrate the optimality and the efficiency of these results.
