We study the problem of estimation of the parameter in a stochastic wave equation driven by an infinite dimensional fractional Brownian motion.
We study the problem of nonparametric estimation of the linear multiplier function $θ(t)$ for processes satisfying stochastic differential equations of the type $$dX_t=θ(t) X_tdt+ εdZ^{q,H}_t, X_0=x_0, 0\leq t \leq T$$ where $\{Z^{q,H}_t, t \geq 0\}$ is a Hermite process with known order $q$ and known self-similarity parameter $H \in (\frac{1}{2},1).$ We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the estimator of the unknown function $θ(t)$ as $ε\rightarrow 0.$
We investigate the asymptotic properties of the minimum $L_1$-norm estimator of the drift parameter for fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type process driven by a Hermite process.
We study the properties of a stochastic heat equation with a generalized mixed fractional Brownian noise. We obtain the covariance structure, stationarity and obtain bounds for the asymptotic behaviour of the solution. We suggest estimators for the unknown parameters based on discrete time observations and study their asymptotic properties.
We discuss nonparametric estimation of the trend coefficient in models governed by a stochastic differential equation driven by a multiplicative stochastic volatility.
Kotlarski (1978) proved a result on identification of the distributions of independent random variables $X,Y$ and $Z$ from the joint distribution of the bivariate random vector $(U,V)$ where $(U,V)= (\max(X,Z),\max(Y,Z)).$ We extend this result to the case $(U,V)=(\max(X,aZ_1,bZ_2),\max(Y,cZ_1,dZ_2))$ where $X,Y,Z_1,Z_2$ are independent or max-independent random variables, $Z_1$ and $Z_2$ are identically distributed and $a,b,c,d$ are known positive constants.
We investigate the valuation of the bid and ask prices for European option under the mixed fractional Brownian motion environment in the presence of superimposed jumps by an independent Poisson process.
We study the problem of nonparametric estimation of the linear multiplier function $θ(t)$ for processes satisfying stochastic differential equations of the type $$dX_t=θ(t)X_tdt+εdW_t^{H,K}, X_0=x_0,0\leq t \leq T$$ where $\{W_t^{H,K}, t \geq 0\}$ is a bifractional Brownian motion with known parameters $H\in (0,1), K\in (0,1]$ and $HK\in (\frac{1}{2},1).$ We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the estimator of the unknown function $θ(t)$ as $ε\rightarrow 0.$
We derive some maximal inequalities for the bifractional Brownian motion using comparison theorems for Gaussian processes.
Most of the characterizations of probability distributions are based on properties of functions of possibly independent random variables. We investigate characterizations of probability distributions through properties of minima or maxima of max-independent, min-independent and quasi-independent random variables generalizing the results from independent random variables of Kotlarski (1978), Prakasa Rao (1992) and Klebanov (1973).
The aim of this work is to obtain discrete versions of stochastic Gronwall inequalities involving demimartingale sequences. The results generalize the respective theorems for martingales provided by Kruse and Scheutzow (2018) and Hendy et al. (2022). Moreover, we present an application which provides an upper bound for the a priori estimate of the backward Euler-Maruyama numerical scheme.
We introduce a generalized mixed fractional Brownian motion (gmfBm) as a linear combination of two independent fractional Brownian motions with possibly different Hurst indices and investigate conditions under which the time-changed gmfBm exhibit long range dependence when the time-change is induced by a tempered stable subordinator or a Gamma process.
We discuss some conditional generalized Borel-Cantelli lemmas and investigate their quantitative versions following the ideas of Arthan and Oliva (arXiv: 2012.09942).
We obtain some maximal probability and moment inequalities for multidimensionally indexed demimartingales. Although the class of single-indexed demimartingales has been studied extensively, no significant amount of work has been done for the corresponding multiindexed class of random variables. This work aims to fill in this gap in the literature by extending well-known inequalities and asymptotic results to this more general class of random variables.
We investigate the asymptotic properties of a kernel-type nonparametric estimator of the linear multiplier in models governed by a stochastic differential equation driven by a general Gaussian process.
We investigate the asymptotic properties of the minimum $L_1$-norm estimator of the drift parameter for fractional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck type process driven by a general Gaussian process.
We discuss nonparametric estimation of linear multiplier in a trend coefficient in models governed by an $α$-stable small noise.
We investigate the asymptotic properties of maximum likelihood estimators of the drift parameter for fractional vasicek model driven by a sub-fractional Brownian motion.
