Nonparametric density estimation for the small jumps of Lévy processes
摘要
We consider the problem of estimating the density of the process associated with the small jumps of a pure jump Lévy process, possibly of infinite variation, from discrete observations of one trajectory. The interest of such a question lies on the observation that even when the Lévy measure is known, the density of the increments of the small jumps of the process cannot be computed in closed-form. We discuss results both from low and high-frequency observations. In a low frequency setting, assuming the Lévy density associated with the jumps larger than
