Uncompensated Lévy–Khintchine formula ($\psi (u)=ibu-{\sigma }^2{u}^2/2+\int (e^{iuy}-1)K(dy)$)

If a Lévy measure satisfies ${\int }_{|y|\le 1}|y|K(dy)<\infty$, the jump integral in the Lévy–Khintchine formula can be written without compensation: $\mathbb{E}{e}^{iu{X}_t}=e^{t\psi (u)}$, with the displayed exponent. Its integral is absolutely convergent because $|e^{iuy}-1|\le |u||y|$ near zero and is at most $2$ elsewhere. If the compensated formula uses drift $\gamma$, the uncompensated drift is $b=\gamma -{\int }_{|y|\le 1}yK(dy)$. The Gaussian coefficient is still ${\sigma }^2\ge 0$.
