Edgeworth expansion for functionals of continuous diffusion processes
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents new results on the Edgeworth expansion for high frequency functionals of continuous diffusion processes. We derive asymptotic expansions for weighted functionals of the Brownian motion and apply them to provide the second order Edgeworth expansion for power variation of diffusion processes. Our methodology relies on martingale embedding, Malliavin calculus and stable central limit theorems for semimartingales. Finally, we demonstrate the density expansion for studentized statistics of power variations.

Bootstrap for continuous - time processes
An Edgeworth expansion of a Studentized statistic for an ergodic regenerative strong Markov process is validated. A specific nonparametric bootstrap method is proposed and proved to be second-order correct in the light of the Edgeworth expansion, which is a variant of the regenerative block bootstrap designed for discrete-time Markov processes. One-dimensional diffusions and semi-Markov process...

We give a spectral approach to prove a parametric rst-order Edgeworth expansion for bivariate additive functionals of strongly ergodic Markov chains. In particular, given any V geometrically ergodic Markov chain (Xn)n∈IN whose distribution depends on a parameter θ, we prove that {ξp(Xn−1, Xn); p ∈ P, n ≥ 1} satis es a uniform (in (θ, p)) rst-order Edgeworth expansion provided that {ξp(·, ·); p ...

متن کاملAsymptotic Analysis for Stochastic Volatility: Edgeworth expansion
The validity of an approximation formula for European option prices under a general stochastic volatility model is proved in the light of the Edgeworth expansion for ergodic diffusions. The asymptotic expansion is around the Black-Scholes price and is uniform in bounded payoff functions. The result provides a validation of an existing singular perturbation expansion formula for the fast mean re...
متن کاملMoment estimation for ergodic diffusion processes
We investigate the moment estimation for an ergodic diffusion process with unknown trend coefficient. We consider nonparametric and parametric estimation. In each case, we present a lower bound for the risk and then construct an asymptotically efficient estimator of the moment type functional or of a parameter which has a one-to-one correspondence to such a functional. Next, we clarify a higher...
