Joint law of the hitting time, overshoot and undershoot for a Lévy process

Let be $(X_t, t\geq 0)$ be a Lévy process which is the sum of a Brownian motion with drift and a compound Poisson process. We consider the first passage time $τ_x$ at a fixed level $x>0$ by $(X_t, t\geq 0)$ and $K_x:= X_{τ_x}-x$ the overshoot and $L_x:= x-X_{τ_x^-}$ the undershoot. We first study the regularity of the density of the first passage time. Secondly, we calculate the joint law of $(τ_x, K_x, L_x).$

First passage time law for some Lévy processes with compound Poisson: Existence of a conditional density with incomplete observation

We study the default risk in incomplete information. That means, we model the value of a firm by one Lévy process which is the sum of brownian motion with drift and compound Poisson process. This Lévy process can not be observed completely and we let an other process which representes the available information on the firm. We obtain an equation safisfied by the conditional density of the default time given the available information and closed form expression for the density.
