| contents | This paper is devoted to establishing the full scaling limit theorems for multivariate Hawkes processes. Under some mild conditions on the exciting kernels, we develop a new way to prove that after a suitable time-spatial scaling, the asymptotically critical multivariate Hawkes processes converge weakly to the unique solution of a multidimensional stochastic Volterra equation with convolution kernel being the potential measure associated to a matrix-valued extended Bernstein function. Also, based on the observation of their affine property and generalized branching property, we provide an exponential-affine representation of the Fourier-Laplace functional of scaling limits in terms of the unique solutions of multidimensional Riccati-Volterra equations with measure kernel. The regularity of limit processes and their alternate representations are also investigated by using the potential theory of Lévy subordinators. |
