Some Properties of the Kilbas-Saigo Function

We characterize the complete monotonicity of the Kilbas-Saigo function on the negative half-line. We also provide the exact asymptotics at −∞, and uniform hyperbolic bounds are derived. The same questions are addressed for the classical Le Roy function. The main ingredient for the proof is a probabilistic representation of these functions in terms of the stable subordinator.

Skellam Type Processes of Order k and Beyond

In this article, we introduce the Skellam process of order k and its running average. We also discuss the time-changed Skellam process of order k. In particular, we discuss the space-fractional Skellam process and tempered space-fractional Skellam process via time changes in Skellam process by independent stable subordinator and tempered stable subordinator, respectively. We derive the marginal probabilities, Lévy measures, governing difference-differential equations of the introduced processes. Our results generalize the Skellam process and running average of Poisson process in several directions.
