Invariant measures for multidimensional fractional stochastic volatility models

Abstract: We establish convergence to an invariant measure as time tends to infinity, for a large class of (possibly non-Markovian) stochastic volatility models. Our arguments are based on a novel coupling idea for Markov chains which also extends to Markov chains in random environments in an efficient way.


Stochastic volatility models (in the simplest one-dimensional case) are of the form \(dS_t = \nu_1(S_t, V_t)S_t dt + V_t S_t d\overline{W}_t,\) where \(\overline{W}\) is a Brownian motion, \(\nu_1\) is a suitable function and \(S\) describes the (discounted) price of an asset with volatility process \(V.\) The authors prove that under mean-reversion and smoothness conditions on the drift of \(S\) and integrability assumptions on \(V_0, S_0 \) -- the stochastic system \((S_t, V_t)\) converges to an invariant probability, independent of the initialization \(S_0.\) A multi-asset framework is treated and \(B, W\) are allowed to have a stochastic correlation.
