Chihoon Lee, Stevens Institute of Technology:  We present a transform analysis of one-dimensional Markov processes through their infinitestimal generators. More precisely, we characterize the joint double (Laplace) transforms of additive functionals of Markov processes and the terminal values, which extends the work of Cai et al. (2015) computing Asian options. We also establish a simple duality relationship between continuous positive additive functionals of processes and their right inverses. Through this duality, we obtain the double transforms of inverses of additive functionals of Markov processes.
