contents Univariate marked Hawkes processes are used to model a range of real-world phenomena including earthquake aftershock sequences, contagious disease spread, content diffusion on social media platforms, and order book dynamics. This paper illustrates a fundamental connection between univariate marked Hawkes processes and multivariate Hawkes processes. Exploiting this connection renders a framework that can be built upon for expressive and flexible inference on diverse data. Specifically, multivariate unmarked Hawkes representations are introduced as a tool to parameterize univariate marked Hawkes processes. We show that such multivariate representations can asymptotically approximate a large class of univariate marked Hawkes processes, are stationary given the approximated process is stationary, and that resultant conditional intensity parameters are identifiable. A simulation study demonstrates the efficacy of this approach, and provides heuristic bounds for error induced by the relatively larger parameter space of multivariate Hawkes processes.
