Gaussian and non-Gaussian processes of zero power variation

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: This paper considers the class of stochastic processes X which are Volterra convolutions of a martingale M. When M is Brownian motion, X is Gaussian, and the class includes fractional Brownian motion and other Gaussian processes with or without homogeneous increments. Let m be an odd integer. Under some technical conditions on the quadratic variation of M, it is shown that the m-power variation exists and is zero when a quantity delta2(r) related to the variance of an increment of M over a small interval of length r satisfies delta(r)=o(r1/(2m)). In the case of a Gaussian process with homogeneous increments, delta is X's canonical metric and the condition on delta is proved to be necessary, and the zero variation result is extended to non-integer symmetric powers. In the non-homogeneous Gaussian case, when m=3, the symmetric (generalized Stratonovich) integral is defined, proved to exist, and its It^o's formula is proved to hold for all functions of class C6.
