Definition 7.4 Quantitative Methods · Chapitre 7 — Point Processes and Hawkes Processes

A Hawkes process is a counting process with intensity

λt=μ+∑ti<tg(t−ti),\lambda_t = \mu + \sum_{t_i < t}g(t - t_i),

with a baseline μ>0\mu > 0 and a nonnegative excitation kernel gg. The branching ratio is ∥g∥1=∫0∞g(u) du\lVert g\rVert_1 = \int_0^\infty g(u)\,du. With the exponential kernel g(u)=αe−βug(u) = \alpha e^{-\beta u}, it is α/β\alpha/\beta.

The cluster representation of a Hawkes process. Immigrants (tall, blue) arrive as a Poisson process; every event has a Poisson number of children (short, red) with mean equal to the branching ratio, at delays drawn from the normalised kernel. The events of all generations together form the Hawkes process.
