Synchronized L\'evy queues

We consider a multivariate L'evy process where the first coordinate is a L'evy process with no negative jumps which is not a subordinator and the others are nondecreasing. We determine the Laplace-Stieltjes transform of the steady-state buffer content vector of an associated system of parallel queues. The special structure of this transform allows us to rewrite it as a product of joint Laplace-Stieltjes transforms. We are thus able to interpret the buffer content vector as a sum of independent random vectors.
