Fisher Information for Fractional Brownian Motion Under High-Frequency Discrete Sampling

Abstract

We investigate the issue of the validation of the local asymptotic normality property of three characterizing parameters of the fractional Brownian motion under high-frequency discrete sampling. We prove that the local asymptotic normality property holds true for the likelihood only when at least one of the volatility parameter and the Hurst exponent is known. We provide optimal rates of convergence of the three parameters and Fisher information matrix in closed form.
