Convoluted fractional Poisson process of order k

Abstract

In this article, we define a convoluted fractional Poisson process of order k (CFPPoK), which is governed by the discrete convolution operator in the system of fractional differential equations. Next, we obtain its one-dimensional distribution by using the Laplace transform of its state probabilities. Various distributional properties, such as probability generating function, moment generating function and moments, are derived. A special case of CFPPoK, (say) convoluted Poisson process of order k (CPPoK) is studied and also established Martingale characterization for CPPoK. We further derive the covariance structure of CFPPoK and investigate the long-range dependence property.
