Tempered positive Linnik processes and their representations

This paper analyzes various classes of processes associated with the tempered positive Linnik (TPL) distribution. We provide several subordinated representations of TPL Lévy processes and in particular establish a stochastic self-similarity property with respect to negative binomial subordination. In finite activity regimes we show that the explicit compound Poisson representations give raise to innovations following Mittag-Leffler type laws which are apparently new. We characterize two time-inhomogeneous TPL processes, namely the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) Lévy-driven processes with stationary distribution and the additive process determined by a TPL law. We finally illustrate how the properties studied come together in a multivariate TPL Lévy framework based on a novel negative binomial mixing methodology. Some potential applications are outlined in the contexts of statistical anti-fraud and financial modelling.
