Variations and estimators for the selfsimilarity order through Malliavin calculus

الأصل · EN

Using multiple stochastic integrals and the Malliavin calculus, we analyze the asymptotic behavior of quadratic variations for a specific non-Gaussian self-similar process, the Rosenblatt process. We apply our results to the design of strongly consistent statistical estimators for the self-similarity parameter H. Although, in the case of the Rosenblatt process, our estimator has non-Gaussian asymptotics for all H>1/2, we show the remarkable fact that the process's data at time 1 can be used to construct a distinct, compensated estimator with Gaussian asymptotics for H∈(1/2,2/3).
