Bayesian Posterior Inference And Lan For L̩Vy Models Under High-Frequency Data, Qi Wang
Arts & Sciences Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Parameter estimation and inference for L̩vy models under high-frequency data has been an exciting and important task in the field of financial mathematics and has been found practically useful when analyzing real financial data. One feature of L̩vy models is the allowance of jumps to model the abrupt changes sometimes observed in the market. In this thesis, we discuss some problems related to the statistical inference of L̩vy models based on high-frequency data emphasizing on the presence of the jumps. The first problem we consider focuses on the estimation of the volatility, which is critical to measure and control the …
