Equivalence for nonparametric drift estimation of a diffusion process and its Euler scheme
Résumé
At first consider a stationary and ergodic stochastic process which fulfills a nonparametric diffusion model driven by a Brownian motion. Our aim is the estimation of the unknown drift and volatility functions using a discrete high-frequency sample. Motivated by Bandi and Phillips, [1], we use Nadaraya-Watson like estimators and extend their results to bandwidths which depend on the available sample. Using a specific bandwidth, we can reach a faster rate of convergence of the bias term of our estimators. Furthermore, we prove asymptotic properties like consistency and asymptotic normality. Afterwards we consider a more general model, which is driven by an α-stable Lévy motion. Again we make use of a Nadaraya-Watson like estimator for the unknown drift function. Under comparable assumptions we prove the corresponding asymptotic properties. A short simulation study illustrates our results.
