Modern Stochastics: Theory and Applications

We find the best approximation of the fractional Brownian motion with the Hurst index $H\in (0,1/2)$ by Gaussian martingales of the form ${\textstyle\int _{0}^{t}}{s^{\gamma }}d{W_{s}}$, where W is a Wiener process, $\gamma >0$.

Moment inequalities for a class of functionals of i.i.d. random fields are proved. Then rates are derived in the central limit theorem for weighted sums of such randoms fields via an approximation by m-dependent random fields.

Our aim in this paper is to establish some strong stability properties of a solution of a stochastic differential equation driven by a fractional Brownian motion for which the pathwise uniqueness holds. The results are obtained using Skorokhod’s selection theorem.

We study asymptotic normality of the randomized periodogram estimator of quadratic variation in the mixed Brownian–fractional Brownian model. In the semimartingale case, that is, where the Hurst parameter H of the fractional part satisfies $H\in (3/4,1)$, the central limit theorem holds. In the nonsemimartingale case, that is, where $H\in (1/2,3/4]$, the convergence toward the normal distribution with a nonzero mean still holds if $H=3/4$, whereas for the other values, that is, $H\in (1/2,3/4)$, the central convergence does not take place. We also provide Berry–Esseen estimates for the estimator.
