For n equidistant observations of a Lévy process at time distance Δn we consider the problem of testing hypotheses on the volatility, the jump measure and its Blumenthal–Getoor index in a non- or semiparametric manner. Asymptotically as n→∞ we allow for both, the high-frequency regime...

We introduce power variation constructed from powers of the second-order differences of a discretely observed pure-jump semimartingale processes. We derive the asymptotic behavior of the statistic in the setting of high-frequency observations of the underlying process with a fixed time span....

Let (Xt)t⩾0 be a Feller process generated by a pseudo-differential operator whose symbol satisfies ‖p(⋅,ξ)‖∞⩽c(1+|ξ|2) and p(⋅,0)≡0. We prove that, for a large class of examples, the Hausdorff dimension of the set {Xt:t∈E} for any analytic set E⊂[0,∞) is almost surely...
