Abstract

We establish properties of strong local nondeterminism for several classes of α-stable random fields such as harmonizable-type fractional stable fields with stationary increments, harmonizable and linear fractional stable sheets. We apply these properties to study existence and joint continuity of the local times of stable random fields.
