Generating diffusions with fractional Brownian motion (scientific article)



Abstract: We study fast / slow systems driven by a fractional Brownian motion B with Hurst parameter Hin(frac13,1]. Surprisingly, the slow dynamic converges on suitable timescales to a limiting Markov process and we describe its generator. More precisely, if Yvarepsilon denotes a Markov process with sufficiently good mixing properties evolving on a fast timescale varepsilonll1, the solutions of the equation dX^varepsilon = varepsilon^{frac 12-H} F(X^varepsilon,Y^varepsilon),dB+F_0(X^varepsilon,Y^varepsilon),dt; converge to a regular diffusion without having to assume that F averages to 0, provided that H<frac12. For H>frac12, a similar result holds, but this time it does require F to average to 0. We also prove that the n-point motions converge to those of a Kunita type SDE. One nice interpretation of this result is that it provides a continuous interpolation between the homogenisation theorem for random ODEs with rapidly oscillating right-hand sides (H=1) and the averaging of diffusion processes (H=frac12).
