Stable limits for sums of dependent infinite variance random variables

The aim of this paper is to provide conditions which ensure that the affinely transformed partial sums of a strictly stationary process converge in distribution to an infinite variance stable distribution. Conditions for this convergence to hold are known in the literature. However, most of these results are qualitative in the sense that the parameters of the limit distribution are expressed in terms of some limiting point process. In this paper we will be able to determine the parameters of the limiting stable distribution in terms of some tail characteristics of the underlying stationary sequence. We will apply our results to some standard time series models, including the GARCH(1, 1) process and its squares, the stochastic volatility models and solutions to stochastic recurrence equations.

Are fractional Brownian motions predictable?

We provide a device, called the local predictor, which extends the idea of the predictable compensator. It is shown that a fBm with the Hurst index greater than 1/2 coincides with its local predictor while fBm with the Hurst index smaller than 1/2 does not admit any local predictor. The local predictor of a martingale (in particular: Brownian motion) trivially exists and equals 0.

Existence of weak solutions to stochastic evolution inclusions

We consider the Cauchy problem for a semilinear stochastic differential inclusion in a Hilbert space. The linear operator generates a strongly continuous semigroup and the nonlinear term is multivalued and satisfies a condition which is more heneral than the Lipschitz condition. We prove the existence of a mild solution to this problem. This solution is not "strong" in the probabilistic sense, that is, it is not defined on the underlying probability space, but on a larger one, which provides a "very good extension" in the sense of Jacod and Memin. Actually, we construct this solution as a Young measure, limit of approximated solutions provided by the Euler scheme. The compactness in the space of Young measures of this sequence of approximated solutions is obtained by proving that some measure of noncompactness equals zero.

Natural decomposition of processes and weak Dirichlet processes

A class of stochastic processes, called "weak Dirichlet processes", is introduced and its properties are investigated in detail. This class is much larger than the class of Dirichlet processes. It is closed under C^1$-transformations and under absolutely continuous change of measure. If a weak Dirichlet process has finite energy, as defined by Graversen and Rao, its Doob-Meyer type decomposition is unique. The developed methods have been applied to a study of generalized martingale convolutions.
