Abstract: In this article we get simple explicit formulas for ExpsupsleqtX(s) where X is a spectrally positive or negative L'evy process with infinite variation. As a consequence we derive a generalization of the well-known formula for the supremum distribution of Wiener process that is we obtain Prob(supsleqtZalpha(s)gequ)=alphaProb(Zalpha(t)gequ) for ugeq0 where Zalpha is a spectrally negative L'evy process with 1<alphaleq2 which also stems from Kendall's identity for the first crossing time. Our proof uses a formula for the supremum distribution of a spectrally positive L'evy process which follows easily from the elementary Seals formula.
