Abstract: We study the Wiener-Hopf factorization for L'evy processes Xt with completely monotone jumps. Extending previous results of L.C.G. Rogers, we prove that the space-time Wiener-Hopf factors are complete Bernstein functions of both the spatial and the temporal variable. As a corollary, we prove complete monotonicity of: (a) the tail of the distribution function of the supremum of Xt up to an independent exponential time; (b) the Laplace transform of the supremum of Xt up to a fixed time T, as a function of T. The proof involves a detailed analysis of the holomorphic extension of the characteristic exponent f(xi) of Xt, including a peculiar structure of the curve along which f(xi) takes real values.
