Abstract

We study a class of processes which are essentially processes with stationary independent increments whose basic parameters are allowed to vary randomly over time. These processes are equivalent to random time transformations of processes with stationary independent increments where the time process is independent of the original process. Several limiting theorems are presented including weak and strong laws of large numbers and a functional central limit theorem.
