Upper and Lower Bounds for Stochastic Processes

Abstract

We outline our general scheme of proof of lower bounds in the simple case of p-stable processes by combining the fact that they are conditionally Gaussian with our results on Gaussian processes.

Notes

  1. 1.

    If you have already glanced through the rest of the book, you should be aware that a basic reason the special case of p-stable processes is simple is that these processes are conditionally Gaussian. Many more processes of interest (such as infinitely divisible processes) are not conditionally Gaussian, but are conditionally Bernoulli.

  2. 2.

    It is explained in the proof of Theorem 11.7.1 how to cover the case where T is countable.

  3. 3.

    We know now how to give much simpler proofs than those of [132].
