(a) Give the definition of a Poisson process on R+. Let X be a Poisson process on R+. Show that conditional on {Xt=n}, the jump times J1,…,Jn have joint density function
f(t1,…,tn)=tnn!1(0⩽t1⩽…⩽tn⩽t)
where I(A) is the indicator of the set A.
(b) Let N be a Poisson process on R+with intensity λ and jump times {Jk}. If g:R+→R is a real function, we define for all t>0
R(g)[0,t]={g(Jk):k∈N,Jk⩽t}
Show that for all t>0 the following is true
P(0∈R(g)[0,t])=1−exp(−λ∫0tI(g(s)=0)ds)
