Exact Edgeworth expansion for a L\'evy process

Abstract

The one dimensional distribution of a L\'evy process is not known in general even though its characteristic function is given by the famous L\'evy-Khinchine theorem. This article gives an exact series representation for the one dimensional distribution of a L\'evy process satisfying certain moment conditions. Moreover, this work clarifies an old result by Cram\'er on Edgeworth expansions for the distribution function of a L\'evy process.
