Théorèmes limites pour les temps locaux d'un processus stable symétrique (
Limit theorems)
Using Dynkin's isomorphism, a central-limit type theorem is derived for the local times of a stable symmetric process of index $\beta$ at a finite number $n$ of levels. The limiting process is expressed in terms of a fractional, $n$-dimensional Brownian sheet with Hurst index $\beta-1$. The case when $n=1$ is due to Rosen
2533, and, for Brownian local times, to Yor
1709Comment: This kind of result is now understood as a weak form of theorems à la Ray-Knight, describing the local times of a stable symmetric process: see Eisenbaum-Kaspi-Marcus-Rosen-Shi
Ann. Prob. 28 (2000) for a Ray-Knight theorem involving fractional Brownian motion. Marcus-Rosen,
