Skellam Processes via Multiparameter Poisson Process

Abstract

We introduce a mltiparameter version of Skellam point process via multiparameter Poisson processes. Its distributional properties are studied in detail. Its compound representation is derived for a particular case. Also, its Riemann integral over a rectangle in ${\mathbb{R}}_{+}^M$, $M\ge 1$ is introduced and a closed expression for its characteristic function is obtained. Later, we introduce a different version of multiparameter Skellam process, and derive a weak convergence result for it. Moreover, a two parameter fractional Skellam process is discussed.
