This brief monograph is an in-depth study of the infinite divisibility and self-decomposability properties of central and noncentral Student’s distributions, represented as variance and mean-variance mixtures of multivariate Gaussian distributions with the reciprocal gamma mixing distribution. These results allow us to define and analyse Student-L�vy processes as Thorin subordinated Gaussian L�vy processes. A broad class of one-dimensional, strictly stationary diffusions with the Student’s t-marginal distribution are defined as the unique weak solution for the stochastic differential equation. Using the independently scattered random measures generated by the bi-variate centred Student-L�vy process, and stochastic integration theory, a univariate, strictly stationary process with the centred Student’s t- marginals and the arbitrary correlation structure are defined. As a promising direction for future work in constructing and analysing new multivariate Student-L�vy type processes, the notion of L�vy copulas and the related analogue of Sklar’s theorem are explained.

About the Author

Prof. Grigelionis is a senior research fellow at the Institute of Mathematics and Informatics of Vilnius University, member of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences and the International Statistical Institute. He has done extensive research in stochastic analysis and its applications. These include the semimartingale characterisation of stochastic processes with conditionally independent increments and solutions of stochastic Ito's equations, stochastic nonlinear filtering equations, optimal stopping of stochastic processes - joint research with A. Shiryaev - criteria of weak convergence of stochastic processes - joint research with R. Mikulevičius - etc. His current research topics are the properties of mixed Gaussian distributions and related stochastic processes.
