Fund Project: This work was supported by National Key R&D Program of China (Grant No. 2018YFA0703900), National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No. 11671231) , Tian Yuan Fund of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant Nos. 11526205 and 11626247) and National Basic Research Program of China (973 Program) (Grant No. 2007CB814900).

We introduce G-Lévy processes which develop the theory of processes with independent and stationary increments under the framework of sublinear expectations. We then obtain the Lévy–Khintchine formula and the existence for G-Lévy processes. We also introduce G-Poisson processes.

Keywords: Sublinear expectation, G-normal distribution, G-Brownian motion, G-expectation, Lévy process, G-Lévy process, G-Poisson process, Lévy-Khintchine formula, Lévy-Itô decomposition.
