Inflation, Race, and Legislation—The Erosion in the Real Value of Monetary Compensation for Miners' Occupational Lung Disease in South Africa, 1973–2024

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background For much of the 20th century, the South African mining industry had a statutory compensation system for pneumoconiosis and tuberculosis characterized by gross racial inequality. This study examines the impact of inflation over the period 1973–2024 on the real value of miners' lung disease compensation, including the effect of the ...

Cliquet option pricing with Meixner processes

open access: yesModern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2018
We investigate the pricing of cliquet options in a geometric Meixner model. The considered option is of monthly sum cap style while the underlying stock price model is driven by a pure-jump Meixner–Lévy process yielding Meixner distributed log-returns ...

Adaptive Lévy processes and area-restricted search in human foraging. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
A considerable amount of research has claimed that animals' foraging behaviors display movement lengths with power-law distributed tails, characteristic of Lévy flights and Lévy walks.

Lévy processes conditioned to stay in a half-space with applications to directional extremes

open access: yesModern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2022
This paper provides a multivariate extension of Bertoin’s pathwise construction of a Lévy process conditioned to stay positive or negative. Thus obtained processes conditioned to stay in half-spaces are closely related to the original process on a ...

Remote Language Assessment in School‐Age Children With Phelan–McDermid Syndrome and Genotype–Phenotype Correlation

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with Phelan–McDermid syndrome (PMS) have reduced speech and language abilities, yet little research has profiled the communication abilities in this population. The purpose of this study was threefold: identifying the language and communication profiles of school‐aged children with PMS, identifying genetic contributions to language and ...

Cliquet option pricing in a jump-diffusion Lévy model

open access: yesModern Stochastics: Theory and Applications, 2018
We investigate the pricing of cliquet options in a jump-diffusion model. The considered option is of monthly sum cap style while the underlying stock price model is driven by a drifted Lévy process entailing a Brownian diffusion component as well as ...

KDM2B‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder A Case‐Series Supporting the CxxC Domain Phenotype With Emphasis on Ocular and Dermatologic Features

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The KDM2B‐related neurodevelopmental disorder is a recently identified Mendelian disorder of the epigenetic machinery associated with pathogenic variants in KDM2B. Global developmental delay, intellectual disability, congenital anomalies, and systemic manifestations characterize the disorder.

Lévy laplacians and annihilation process

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Физико-математические науки, 2018
The Lévy Laplacians are infinite-dimensional Laplace operators defined as the Cesaro mean of the second-order directional derivatives. In the theory of Sobolev–Schwarz distributions over a Gaussian measure on an infinite-dimensional space (the Hida ...
