Additive processes are obtained from Levy ones by relaxing the condition of stationary increments, hence they are spatially (but not temporally) homogeneous. By analogy with the case of time-homogeneous Markov processes, one can de ne an in nitesimal generator, which is, of course, a timedependent operator. Additive versions of stable and Gamma processes have been considered in the literature. We introduce here time-inhomogeneous generalizations of the well-known geometric stable process, de ned by means of time-dependent versions of fractional pseudo-dierential operators of logarithmic type. The local Lévy measures are expressed in terms of Mittag-Leffler functions or H-functions with time-dependent parameters. This article also presents some results about propagators related to additive processes.
