Subordinated Gaussian Random Fields

Abstract

Motivated by the subordinated Brownian motion, we define a new class of (in general discontinuous) random fields on higher-dimensional parameter domains: the subordinated Gaussian random field. We investigate the pointwise marginal distribution of the constructed random fields, derive a Lévy-Khinchin-type formula and semi-explicit formulas for the covariance function. Further, we study the pointwise stochastic regularity and validate our theoretical findings in various numerical examples.
