EFFICIENT ESTIMATION OF INTEGRATED VOLATILITY FUNCTIONALS UNDER GENERAL VOLATILITY DYNAMICS
一般波动率动态下积分波动率泛函的有效估计
We provide an asymptotic theory for the estimation of a general class of smooth nonlinear integrated volatility functionals. Such functionals are broadly useful for measuring financial risk and estimating economic models using high-frequency transaction data. The theory is valid under general volatility dynamics, which accommodates both Itô semimartingales (e.g., jump-diffusions) and long-memory processes (e.g., fractional Brownian motions). We establish the semiparametric…
