Testing for the presence of jump components in jump diffusion models
跳跃扩散模型中跳跃成分的存在性检验
In this paper we propose a nonparametric test to determine whether an underlying jump diffusion process indeed contains jump component, or equivalently, is indeed a diffusion. Our test is based upon a robust threshold estimation of diffusive volatility and the kernel estimation of the conditional moment function of the squared instantaneous increments of the underlying process. We show that our test statistic has asymptotic standard normal distribution under the null…
